  1. In my Dad’s own words:

    “I went to see your Mom first time in my life early 1967…My only question when we were alone for 10 seconds: ‘My mother has asthma, and you think you would not mind to look after a sick lady?’

    [She] Answered a nod in yes, and I never knew if she could talk.

    That won my heart and I was hoping that she would agree to marry me.”
