"It sounds to me, based on this story alone, your father was someone who would sacrifice something for you."
You are correct. He worked at the Ford Assembly plant for 25 years in NJ. Started by putting tires on cars on the graveyard shift. Retired as head QC inspector on the grave yard shift. I asked him why he chose those hours? "The money was better on that shift. I got a lot of OT when the next shift had someone call in sick-I grabbed every minute ($) I could because I was responsible to raise my family".
Yup. Dad sacrificed a major part of his life to make a better one for me, my sister and his wife. Almost hit their 59th year.
Decision made. Cobb will be gone in a week. Clemente gets scanned and mailed as it was sold this afternoon at a price that i am more than happy with.
