I have been keeping a daily journal for the past 12 years. It is now
several floppies long. By making regular small entries, the job of
writing one's personal history is not so overwhelming. My father passed
away January 15. Fortunately, he wrote a 75-page history shortly before
he died. I will always cherish his writings.
