…END official obituary

Dad had an accent that I didn’t hear, but my friends said was (duh) there. He did put an “e” in front of any word that began with an ess. Estupid.

I would take it as a great thing if you filled out more dad stories in the comments. Much much better way to get a sense of dad’s life than a list of jobs and names and relations.
