19. My friend Brenda (too young), my mom, and the best of my dad.

Mar 2025

So glad the intense grief left long ago, but still sad at times for my mom. A very interesting, creative, caring woman. My dad often became mean in his 3rd depression; before that often so sweet, funny, interested in things.

Bren - effing cancer early 50's. Shared alot of interests, including political, science, artistic, and craft creativity.


And goes w/o saying for the better USA before the drumphf years.
