I thought I was the only Uncle Gene did that with. When dad was still alive one of the first things Uncle Gene would do would be ask me how my dad was doing. Then we'd talked about this or that but always Uncle Gene would come back to mentioning dad somehow. Uncle Gene left no doubt, in my mind, that he still considered dad a member of his family. I guess that's why Uncle Gene was the man he was. All of us are very lucky to have the fanily we have. The only word that comes even close to describing our family to me, is incredible. You all have a Merry Christmas Unreal Gloria. I thought I was the only Uncle Gene did that with.
