Remembering my dad on the 10th anniversary of his death

10 years ago this day, my father passed away. I don't think about dad a lot now, but do miss him. We had our moments, I did enjoy sharing things with him as he was generally a loving father. Thinking about it over the years after his death, we have many similar mannerisms. That is something others who knew my father would recognize in me. I guess that is a tribute to him. One of the things about my dad that is the most admirable is that he was simple at heart and down-to-earth. I do not find too many people in this world like him.

Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord; and let perpetual light shine upon him. May his soul and the souls of all the Faithful departed through the mercy of God rest in peace. Amen.

Film Review: Gran Torino

I saw the movie Gran Torino recently starrring Clint Eastwood. I think everyone should watch this film as it tackles a lot of issues that many folks would consider politically incorrect. His performance is excellent, and a fitting that it is his last acting role.
