An Italian Biography of Dad. His partial life stories and illness that changed his life and his families life. A quiet man early in life and how his demeanor changed as he got older and when a stroke stopped him from being the person he wanted to be. When a stroke hit him, it changed his thinking, his habits and his actions that affected everyone around him. There are many stories in the book that are sometimes funny, sometimes serious and sometimes mind-boggling. But through it all it was worth the worry, the frustrations, the aggrevations that we went through to take care of Dad. His stories range from a crazy airline flight across the country to his growing tomatoes that could feed the country.
