Thank you, Fred. I lost my dad in the late 80s (so long ago I can’t remember which of two years) and my mom was one of those who passed in 2020-2021. Ours was a complex relationship. Don’t know if you’ve ever heard of a play/movie called “da.” The movie adaptation starred Barnard Hughes and Martin Sheen. There was a line in it that came to mind when I was reading your comment: "It was a long time before I realized that love turned upside down was love, for all of that." I haven’t seen the film in years, around when my dad died, but it has stuck with me. If you’re interested, I see someone’s uploaded it to YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hTooFO6UM84
