Thank you. It is my father in law.
My dad died of a heart attack when I was 20. He was only 52 at the time. He was hard man to get to know when I was young. He was the rule enforcer, but NEVER abusive. As I got older we could talk to each other more, but at only 20 it was not easy to show my emotions. An older brother really connected with him. Both had been in the military, so they shared those experiences.
Thank you for your words.

That must have been real tough to experience, even at 20. I relate to our fathers being hard to get to know. It was never easy to show emotions either in our house. My Dad felt that being upset was a sign of weakness and my Mom was uncomfortable with showing anger. I should nickname it the Great Repression... and now I am having emotions about my dad! Such irony.
I wish for you and your wife strength while coping with your father in law and peace in knowing your Dad is still there with you all the time.
Thank you for sharing.
