1. How long since you have been with your dad? My father passed away on April 19, 1992. I was with him when he died.

2. How many siblings share your dad? I have one brother, Brian, that is three years younger than me.

3. Will you see your dad tomorrow? No. But I do need to visit his grave soon.

4. Do you give him gifts on Father’s Day? I did when he was alive.

5. Have you ever had a tough time in your relationship with your father? I think all children have tough times with their father. My relationship with my father was no exception.

6. What was the last thing that you did with your dad? The last thing we did together (before he was too sick to leave his bed) was watch a movie. We watched Back Draft and he loved it! When he was a teenager up until his adult years Dad was a volunteer fireman.

7. Growing up, was your dad tough on you? I don't think he was. He did believe in spanking as a part of punishment and I only remember getting six real spankings while growing up.

8. Are you close to your father? I think we were close, not like best friends, but I could talk to him about nearly anything. He was always there when I needed him.

9. How long since you have spoke to him? I have not spoken to Dad in 16 years.
