I've lived with that, My Dear Departed Father was a graduate of a
Chinese reeducation camp, parts of what went on there are still
classified to this day. Wow... It will be nine years Christmas day
since he passed, I still think about him everyday, I hear his voice
with the words coming out of my mouth.

Tomorrow will be the 30th anniversary of the passing of my father.
I was 12 and it happened on the day before my 12th birthday.
It tends to be a day of quiet reflection and some emotion.

I can see still my father, but sadly I have forgotten what he sounds like.
I can almost hear it, but I fear it's been too long.

With the technology that's come out since then, I've made an effort to
photograph and make an audio/video recording of as many loved ones as
possible.
