Thanks, Mr. Patterson, and keep on Kerrying On!

Eventually we both grew up and that helped a lot.

Did your relationship with your brother ever change for the better?

Thanks for reminding me to finish this off. It took years for me to muster the courage to tell my dad what I had done. He chastised me then reminded me that the coin collection had been lost years later on a move to Mexico. This didn’t satisfy my conscience very much. My wife and I did buy him a home that he and mom adored through their senior years, but that didn’t clear the ledger. We did that out of love, not guilt. I’m just glad I had a chance to apologize to dad before he passed away a few years back.
