Cherish all those memories.

As one who grew up without a father, I trust you realize how very lucky you were.

My dad is an octogenarian ex-professor with a terminal illness and I make sure to spend time with him. We still have good times and I'm taking out to lunch tomorrow . . . But he was never a collector of anything-- though has a passing knowledge of baseball cards through me talking about it over the years.
