- He was excited for me to call him
- He wanted me to keep working hard at the things I had chosen.

- His birthday was Feb7.
- He mowed his own lawn til the end.
- He had dinner every week with my uncle and aunt. They would come over often. He wasn't alone.
- He was probably verbally abusive to my mom when she was a kid. Maybe he mellowed out, maybe he grew, maybe he got weaker, regardless it improved. He was kind to me. People treat people differently and even the same people differently with time. Positively and negatively.
- He must have loved nature and birds. I'm looking around his house now and noticing all the paintings and figures. He would go on walks to the mountain too.
- He used to golf.
- He was an atheist.
- I think he's a veteran. I'm not sure though. I want to ask but don't know how.

- He would fully finish food and eat expired food too.
- He'd insist on doing the dishes.
- His guest room was fully stocked. Even with underwear still in the package.
- He built a house for his family but they had to move shortly after so they rented it. He was upset by the nail holes when they came back.
- When he took me on a walk a neighbor who was arrested came up. He called him a bad man and steered the conversation away. I found out later the neighbor was a pedophile.
- he was deaf.
- He was a veteran.
- Made major charitable donations
- Active in community.
- Was a bishop for a church he didn't believe in because he loved his wife.
- Never remarried not because he couldn't find someone but because he respected his dead wife and thought it would be cruel?
