--- The Genesis of the Question ---

I am grateful.  It’s now been several years since my dad passed away after his second battle with cancer and I am grateful. 

 

My dad was my best friend and it absolutely sucks that he is not here – but I remain so incredibly grateful.

 

Grateful for the 34 years of adventures that we had together and grateful that I asked him one simple question as the sun was beginning to set on his physical time with me in this world.

​

 --- The Question ---

​What was Your Best Day Ever, excluding the birth of a child or your wedding day?

 

I randomly asked this question as my extended family was relaxing in the living room around a dwindling fire after a delicious family dinner.   In this casual setting, we slowly moved around the room to hear each persons’ story.  Some were familiar tales while others were a surprise and I am so grateful to have heard my father’s story.

 

This site serves as the compilation of all of the collective stories of family members and old and new friends.
