My dad loved to fly and wanted to continue after the war, but there were so many WWII pilots doing the same he was not selected. He went on to become an electrician to support his growing family and lived a good life until 2003 when he passed away. Thank-you Dad and Mr Garber for your heroic service!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2445639686053980930.post-71683237897710771562012-12-03T16:23:18.545-08:002012-12-03T16:23:18.545-08:00The bond between parents and children is so primal...The bond between parents and children is so primal - there's no getting over the loss, I think. One feels better as time passes. But, even now, more than 10 years since my father died, I wish I could talk with him. <br /><br />My brother and I have agreed that my father would have been very interested in my family history research. Too bad I didn't think to start until several years after his passing.<br /><br />Thank you, New Yorker, for your thoughtful comment.Emily Garberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04728999439188446783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2445639686053980930.post-81242302491072695682012-12-03T15:28:55.369-08:002012-12-03T15:28:55.369-08:00I enjoyed this blog post on your father's war ...I enjoyed this blog post on your father's war record. Your comment thanking your Dad, reminds me how often " I also talk to my DAD". Our parents are <br />gone but we still talk to them. I can still hear my Dad's voice, how he called me his knaidel or pussycat and other words of love.The New Yorkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05391444365285492215noreply@blogger.com
