People Cant Help But Smile When They Think Of My Father, Which Has To Be The Greatest Legacy Of All. When People Hear My Name For The First Time, They Usually Ask The Same Question: Any Relation? Yes, I Reply Proudly, Hes My Father. They Smile And Cry, Oh, I Love Your Father! Ive Loved Him All My Life. Sometimes, Just Sometimes, They Ask Me The Most Important Question Of All: Was He A Good Father? To Their Surprise, I Shake My Head And Smile. No, I Reply.
