I'm sorry. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. From your stories, he seemed like an absolutely brilliant man and he raised a wonderful daughter.
Speaking completely honestly, if somebody is irritated by BC, they take themselves way too seriously.Don't sweat it. I'm sure your typing is the least of your worries when it comes to irritating folks on here.
Except me. I am totally justified in being irritated by BC.
He was - literally - a rocket scientist, who memorized maps and studied encyclopedias for pleasure. And although he was severely color-blind (red/green), he loved jigsaw puzzles with a passion and always had one on a table ready to work on.
He was a perfectionist, and very strict with his rules and his daughters. There's a country song that some of you will think is kind of sappy, but Holly Dunn's "Daddy's Hands" sums up what he was and how I viewed him...except that I don't take for granted how much he loved us.
My MIL helps run it now -- has for the past 10-15 years.
I know my parents neighbor and friend Marla still works that sale so I am sure your MIL knows her. She watched out for my parents for years and is kinda "family".
Homer "Duh" moment. Braved the Covid and the heat for a grocery run. Got the walleye, steak, bread, pizza, bananas and even bought some peaches.
And forgot to buy beer. Looks like a return trippy. .

Trying again...
Well, it came out funky. His legs really aren't all that long, although he WAS pretty skinny. I took a picture of the onscreen picture from my computer, and loaded that in here.
Edit: Looks (mostly) normal here. When I was posting it, the picture was stretched vertically.

Batting .300 isn't too shabby in some circles!Homer "Duh" moment. Braved the Covid and the heat for a grocery run. Got the walleye, steak, bread, pizza, bananas and even bought some peaches.

I just let it be know that I'm not liked for my intelligence. If it wasn't for my stunning good looks, nobody would hang out with me.
I know I have a sinus infection. Stuff I hacked up mid-morning was nasty. Been in too much corn dust and some was some damaged corn so that sends it over the top.
