My dad was always a force. He loved a football, fishing, boating, camping, ice-cream, a good joke, Michelob, Jack Daniels and Marlboro’s. Over the years he abandoned the Michelob, Jack Daniels and Marlboro’s but continued to enjoy the rest. No one cooked a steak like my dad. I remember going to the restaurant where he worked during the ASARCO strikes. He was a great cook and made amazing chocolate sauce for mid-night ice-cream sundaes. I will always remember his Cheerios with warm milk. I consider my dad responsible for my love of music. Growing up, my dad always had music playing at home and in the car. I remember loving it all! Thanks for the camping trips dad!
One memory, I was driving to work in the early 80’s and got a flat tire. I could not loosen a couple of the lug nuts. An officer stopped and asked if everything was okay. I responded that all was good, but could not get a few lug nuts off. The officer said, “let me try”. I said, “OKAY”. He got his lug wrench out of his car. The officer worked on those two last lug nuts for twenty minutes before they finally came loose. He turned to me and asked who put those on? I said my dad. He said, “who’s your dad, Superman?” He was strong. – Johnny Kolb
