About Me
- Family Pelletier
- The eldest of 12 children in upstate Maine, he made his way down to Connecticut for work and, after a bashful courtship with Jeanne, raised three children with the belief that loving your family means supporting your family, even if that means working 3 jobs at once; a Republican who thought Social Security was something to hold onto; an ex-smoker who sat with the smokers at work; a man who acquired the affection of others without ever kissing anyone's ass; a husband who took great joy in getting his wife to laugh; a father who showed his pride with good, subtle advice; a grandfather who didn't stop grinning whenever he heard or observed Natalie. A gentleman and a gentle man.

Glad to have been able to :)
Thought of you Dad, last night while riding the "sky tram" high above the Oregon State Fair and recalling how many times you rode the Ferris Wheel with me despite your fear of height. I had no idea until you told me so many years later.My fears subsided next to my calm, overjoyed 4 year old.
Love u and miss you.

Yep. Sometimes a parent has to give an Oscar-nominating performance for a child's sake and viewpoint. Ah, yes, I would like to thank the Academy.....! ;-)
Love you dad.
