Gene, my dad has always had that philosophy, and somehow he was able to discipline himself through life to see the fruits. "Save, save, save and never trust an insurance company" has been what he's preached, and it's worked for him. He now has more money than he knows what to do with.

Visitation will be in his home and I'm going to be the one to dig the hole for his ashes. He didn't even have health insurance until my mom died of cancer in '71.

It's too bad his ways never rubbed off on his son! Jim
