For quite some time, dad attended the Harvard Institute for Learning in Retirement. One of his favorite courses was Memoirs Writing. The results of this endeavor is a priceless archive of 20th Century American History, right from the pen of someone who lived it. For me, it is a treasure to have in print the stories I grew up with. Here, then, in order of their chronological reference, are the memories of my father's life. (PDF Format)
