What a beautiful tribute -- it made me cry! I lost my mother to Alzheimer's so I know how difficult it is. Thank you for sharing and I am sorry for your loss.

so many things for granted. One of them is spending precious moments with our families. Excellent story. Thank you so much...

Wow Cathy you are such an awesome writer! Your words made me cry too. I had one of those last moments with your Dad too. He was a great man and a loving step-father to me. We should all stop to enjoy those split pea moments in our lives, a little more often! Love your sister, Holly

I'm so sorry about your loss, but what a beautiful tribute to your father. I'm glad that you wrote about him. I think a lot of people (like myself) can relate because so many of our parents have memory loss. Thanks for bringing this problem home to all of us in such a nice way!
