“...the more years a person has had with his or her parent, the bigger the hole.”

So true.

My mother is gone now (left us in April 2014) and she was 90. We lived together in the last 13 years and for most of the last 3 years, her health was declining almost daily.

I am still stunned and miss her constantly...there are paths in my heart that belong to only her.

You’re a good reflection on your parents.

Mr. Prager must have been an exceptional man, considering how his son turned out.

Excuse me, but what is this supposed to mean?

Very interesting article about your Dad, and I salute him, as I am also former US Navy. A Nice Tribute.

Now we know why you are so nice.

Dennis Prager is a talk show host. Perhaps the best talk show host in America that nobody ever hears (because he’s on opposite Rush).

A man of great common sense, and a living tribute to his father.

I know he is, I misunderstood your comment. My apologies for that.

I don't listen to him or any radio talk show host, including Rush.

I think the tribute was beautiful
