His funeral is the first thing I remember. I was 3 1/2.
We’re about the same age, then, I’m about a year older. Maybe not my first memory, but an important early one. My Mom and I were living at my Grandparents’ house while Dad did a 1-year unaccompanied tour in Korea with the 1st Cav. I remember watching the procession on the B&W TV.
