RANDOM MUSINGS FROM THE TOP OF THE HILL

MY DAD part 11

My Dad may have been a sometimes heavy drinker when I was very young.  I can remember one of the few arguments between my parents occurred when he came home late on a Friday night after work.

Dad only drank beer as far back as I remember and had no musical talent.  His brothers always seemed to me to be heavy drinkers. Stanley fancied himself a singer and would do the soft shoe at family functions. Dad said Larry was a great ballroom dancer and that he and his wife Ginny won contests.  Roger, the lifelong bachelor, was a drinker/gambler.

In his later years, Dad loved to go to the men's club meetings at church.  They would play poker and drink beer for hours.
