One of my favorite stories about Dad happened at Thanksgiving. We had invited some friends to join us, and Mom asked Dad if he could go to Lowe's and build her a table that was the exact same size as our dining room table. He told her, "Let me go out in the building to see what I have, first." He returned about 15 minutes later. Mom said, "How much money do you need?" Dad replied, "For what?" Mom responded, "I ask you to go to Lowe's so you could build me a table." My Dad said, "Oh, I already built it, do you want me to bring it in now?" This was SO typical of my Dad.
