My brother in law was the same - his Ad died in a car accident young and so he thought he'd de young too. Lived recklessly. Then he lived longer than his Dad and changed his mind about life!
You were lucky to have your Mom so long. I hope mine lasts for that long, so long as she isn't as sad as she is now.
Yes, nothing remains the same. Still it can be hard to grapple with at times.
I hadn't seen these photos of Dad since they were printed in the early 90s. They say a lot about his character. Fuck I miss him so terribly.
