Dave Sr.
father
professor of electrical engineering
yellow legal pads full of numbers and symbols I couldn’t understand
Korean War veteran
I never heard one story about it
cigarettes by the hundreds piled in heaps in all the ashtrays
serious
where was the boy in the old yearbook?
the one in drama club, making funny drawings
the author
unhappy
father of two boys
one older, more successful
Ivy League school
honors
more like him
devoted husband
to the point of excess
quiet
mom did the talking
she would call to ask a question for him
did he talk to Dave
or was it just me?
