Subject: RE: BS: Kat goes to Utah-any questions for dad?
Ah, Lloyd, yer making me blush!

McGrath, I forgot to say, I've been taking notes and asking questions about family stories, which he never seems to tire of telling, for years. In the mid-80's, his Christmas present to each of us was a family history tape with him singing all of our favourite tunes on the other side that we grew up hearing him sing. It was harder to get my mom to do that; I only have one tape of her and she isn't singing on it, just a couple of short stories. I got my singing voice from her. It will be a year this January that I have been motherless, which makes my dad even more precious to me, as my last parent.
