re: Most memorable and forgettable family experience

I placed my father's death in the memorable column because I will never forget it nor do I want to forget it. I think he spoke to me more in his death than the 10 years prior to his death. He spoke to me in an incredibly intense rush of amazing memories full of love and compassion. He most definitely was holding my hand in the days after his death, and I learned more from that experience than any experience thus far in my life.

In hindsight his death was the most "fatherly advice" he could give me.

Very profound experience.
