Serving the heart of California since 1892

Opinion: Adult orphan, not much fun

Happy Fathers’ Day to all the dads out there. Every time I see a friend on Facebook sharing time or a meal out with one or both of their parents, I am so jealous.

In addition to this being Father’s Day week, on Monday my mom should have celebrated her 93rd birthday.

She died in 1990 at age 60, and my dad died in 1993 at age 67.
