Dedication: Memories of a Grateful Daughter

DEDICATION

I have been accused of changing stories in the retelling. The quotes from a journal and letters are the actual words of my father, the rest is my remembering. These memories are mine. These memories are my treasure.

For Bridget, Michael, Billy and Mom

These memories
Are my treasure

Their worth is
Yet untold

My father’s
Pearls of wisdom

My mother’s
Heart of gold

I value
This my treasure

As a carpenter
His tools

Dear mother
Thoughtful father

How I love these
Priceless jewels
