That was the gist of my eulogy at my father's funeral 11 yrs ago,
1905-2006.
In his lifetime he saw changes from steam to digital. from privies to
bidet's. from bikes and horseless carriages to 120mph cars. from still
exploring the earth to walking on the moon. from life expectancy of
50yrs to greater than 100 today. The changes in cancer treatment between
seeing his mother die in the 1950s to survival rates at an all time high
today... The loss of our republic and its fall into socialism... I
hope we never have to repeat that era again.
