Godfathers . Jim Berladyn, your Godfather. There’s 25 people alive today because of him right? I don’t want to mention his name for fear of tarnishing it, but I want to mention him too. I might not have the chance later, the first thing I do tomorrow is see a nurse regarding my health. I don’t want to assume, but I think it was all those hours I let you spend here on my computer many years ago which reminded you of who he was. . I witnessed you put my father down, even after his death, yet he couldn’t have been that bad of a guy. He had a lot of friends. People still have respect for him. My father was a good enough man to earn you that Godfather you preach so highly of. He’s well known isn’t he? I wonder if you would have spent so much time with him if he was in the same shoes as your own father. . I remember meeting him when I was young. Dad told me I wouldn’t understand who he was. Dad was right, I was too young. Thank you for thinking of me when you re-introduced me to him. I sure hope you don’t regret that. I remember sitting with him looking at those medals. When I learned of his hobby for model trains, a former love of mine, you became upset and I never even saw them. You warned me never to go there alone because he was all yours. I think your exact words were “he’s all mine!”. . Of course, you always have such a tone when you say things. It’s hard to capture it in writing. He was old and you helped him a lot didn’t you? Thanks for the trip to Seattle. . I haven’t seen my own Godfather since before I turned one years old. If even that and I can't even ask my mother. Either way, I think I am very lucky to have had him. Dad said nothing but really good things about that man, in fact everyone does. If he was here, I can’t imagine any reason I would tell you not to see him. That would imply you were going to take something from me.
