Not Much

Me. I’m 76. My mother died at 50. My father 70. They both deserved to live much longer than me. Sure wish they had.

In answer to the other question, the one not asked, I was 5 when my mother died and a few years past 20 when my father died.

As an aside, my father was a carpeter and was working as he suffered his 3rd heart attack. My mother stayed home and watched us 8 kids. She made our clothes and used a wringer washer to wash them. She cooked 3 meals a day for us and washed the dishes.

As I said, they deserved longer lives than me. Actually, they deserved longer lives, period.
