I have wondered if, like Miles, you might wish that your father be remembered primarily for his connection to YOU, rather than the other way around.
One can wish this while yet realizing the father was a great man, I think.

Well, that thought of Miles's didn't come out of the air... :-)

I could wish my dad had lived to see more of my success, as he died in 1986 just after my first book was published, and before any evidence could accrue. I did have one favorable review from The Chicago Sun-Times to show off before then, for which I will always be grateful.
