If ever there was a gentle soul, it was him-he wouldn't hurt a fly (literally)-often returning insects in the house to the outdoors.
I remember him going to the store to buy a tool to help a stranger repair his car.
I also remember him having a terribly abusive boss, yet he always supported the family and endured many years under him- never becoming bitter or distrustful.
His father was his pal but died all too soon-when my father was just 16. (once as I walked with him by the Brooklyn Bridge he told me that he could feel his father's hand holding his).
He was drafted into the army during World War 2 as an optometrists assistant, but thankfully did not have to fight.
And when he married my mother in 1947 and had my sister Joan, he was working all day, going to Pratt Institute in Brooklyn at night, and coming home at 10pm to supper. Joan was colic and they lived in a furnished room in the Bronx.
At Pratt, he learned mechanical design and worked in that industry most of his life.
He was young in spirit and liked to be around young people who had fresh ideas. He even went back to college in his 70's to study computer-aided drafting (a new technology then) and astronomy.
He loved math and kept his mind sharp doing math problems and studying bridge design. I can remember the kitchen table filled with papers containing calculations-not too long ago, in fact!
Towards the end when he would be hospitalized frequently, I played a game of asking him scientific questions in front of the hospital staff to show that his mind was sharp when they assumed he was not capable of understanding.
I'm not sure if he knew why I would suddenly ask him "so what's the square root of 169?" or "tell my Kepler's laws of planetary motion", but that was the reason-I didn't want them to disregard him.
He was strong, but had a slew of health problems.
First, was a near fatal disease when he was a child-so close that a priest was called to the house.
Next followed heart disease, something with the gall bladder, prostate cancer (and many complications that went along with that), diabetes, a broken hip. Six years ago he was on life support and brought back to life after a seizure.
Time and time again we were told that he wasn't going to make it and then he'd bounce right back. We called him a "miracle man"-"a cat with nine lives".
But this Tuesday that came to an end when his lungs suddenly filled with fluid and his heart soon after stopped.
He was not able to be resuscitated. He was 92.
We never put him in a nursing home when 2 and a half years ago he broke his hip and became completely bedridden. Instead, my mother, sister, both brothers and I helped take care of him along with an elderly 80 year old doctor (who made house calls), some nurses who made periodic visits, and a home care aid, Maria.
Relatives and grandchildren also lent a hand. I'm convinced that what kept him alive was his love of his family and he knowing that we loved him back. He lived simply, humbly, having a great respect for those who he thought knew so much more than he, and most of all a genuine self-less desire to do what's right.
And while he may've felt that his own achievements were perhaps not so worthy of mention (they, in fact were) he was a beautiful person who made the world so much nicer. We will all miss him terribly.
