One thing about Dad, he would want to give everyone an opportunity to express their opinion. I know what he'd probably say to you Eve, and that would be "Oh! You should write a book!". And you know probably our stories would have a lot of similar characteristics as we both forged such a crucial part of our lives at 124 Jewett Parkway. For me, it was from the age of 10 to 17, which I think it about the same case for you. My own project is still coalescing (sp?); but it appears it would be in at least two parts. The first part being the story of my own experience in 124 Jewett from 1966 until I left 10 years later. the second part -- the "biography" is more distant; but you're right -- for that, you should have input as no story of Dad's life would be complete without an accounting of the last 10 years. If there is anything you would like to post here, you're more than welcome. : I read a posting about a possible biography on Ed's life. I think an important thing to do first would be to COMMUNICATE with those members of the family with different last names who he spent the last ten years of his life with. I am sure they would love to contribute. Especially because of his phenomenal affect on their lives
