Padre 1 - Introduction


This is the first of my videos about my mother and father. It introduces them, and explains my intent. Though, later, of course, I decided I couldn't make them so very public and have restricted access to only those who knew my parents, or had some connection to them through me.

"My father died as he did everything else, brilliantly..."

What this blog is about


This blog is meant as an homage to my mother and father, Ethel W. Tucker and T.J. Tucker. My mom passed on in 2014 and my father in 2015. As a way of working out my grief, I decided to do a number of little videos that would detail my father’s last few days.

Originally, I meant these to go along with a book that I was doing about them as well. But, then, I realized that the videos were far too personal to share with everyone in the world. Therefore, rather than post them to Youtube or Facebook, I’ve made them available to only a few individuals who either knew my parents, or had some unique connection to them.

I have posted links to these videos here.
