Dearest Bill, This is rough. You have a lot to deal with. The pain never really goes to zero. Only *asymptomatic * to zero. Those of us who have experienced the final loss of both parents feel tis keenly.
Restoring this bicycle sounds like a really good thing to do. Do allow yourself the mourning. It is part of the process and you need to let it take its measure. ~Tom On Wednesday, December 4, 2013 7:27:37 PM UTC-8, Bill Lindsay wrote: > > As most of you caught, my beloved Father, James Robert Lindsay, died on > October 4th, 2013.
