Yes! Somewhat. He volunteered for his retirement communityās night watch, which consisted of driving around from 12-2 am to make sure no one had left their garage door upāa strict violation! Thankfully, there were few violations and therefore, little to no personal interaction.
Wonderful story and tribute to your husband's dad. One thing that struck me is that people who have not been practicing their faith, suddenly want the comfort of faith as they see the end. I am a non-practicing Catholic. I have no idea what I would do when the end is near.
I bet I will find God at the last second too. Perhaps when I am forced to slow down, that is when I will find it! The little bit of Catholic I grew up with will come oozing out of me.
I loved everything about this. And Iām sure Tom would have appreciated that you guys went balls out for the luncheon.
Nice. šš
Great story, like all the rest of your stories. Your writing comes across as so effing effortless. Nicely done and thanks for sharing!
Thank you, Chad! Sure means a lot.
Wonderful story. What did he do in retirement?
He never did find a job that fit his requirements! He did volunteer at his retirement community, though.

Isnāt that interesting? Ten bucks says I find God at the *very* last second.

If youāre at Nutz Deep, I can almost guarantee you that something will come oozing out.
