Everyone has a father. Obama has Frank Marshall Davis.

I loved my father. He was a good man, he died much to soon at the age of 62, 47 years ago on February 5.

My mother on the other hand saw me as GOD's punishment because I was a twin. I was 15 minutes younger than my sister.

I don't recall actually that my mother ever hit me, except one time when I was 16, but she sure punished me whenever she had a chance.

Does it surprise you that when my youngest brother called me and told me that she passed away (that was many years ago) I never shed a tear. My father's passing was a different story.
