<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bronwen, post: 2252164, member: 5833&quot;]My father didn&#039;t talk about himself unless you asked him directly &amp; then you wouldn&#039;t get much unless you kept probing.&nbsp; I would have loved to see these things - some report cards, a letter, in verse, from his grandmother telling him now that he was moving on to high school, he would need to work harder in other subjects besides woodworking, a couple of children&#039;s books, a baseball, a mortarboard tassel - when I was a kid myself.&nbsp; I had no idea of their existence.&nbsp; After he died, I learned things about him I never knew from older family members.&nbsp; As I said, you had to ask directly, &amp; who would ever think to ask, Dad, when you were a kid, could you pick up bees without being stung?&nbsp; An enigma in a mystery.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
