They say after a parent dies, the surviving children can take on some of their parent’s characteristics. I 56 becoming anything like my dad for years 57 I wanted to be me, not him; but there I sat at his memorial service several months ago, telling myself, “ You’ve __58 a lot more of your dad in you than you think.”
There is this phrase my dad 59 , and I know I’m going to sound 60 to complain about it, but it used to 61 me. “ I am so proud of you,” he told us kids, whether we’d won a race or helped others.
