My stepdad, Fred, is in the hospice unit today at Novant/Presbyterian, fighting the good fight, while I sit here anxiously waiting to board my flight tomorrow morning. In the meantime, its hard not to reminisce about what hes meant to me. Fred is a wonderful person. Hes spoiled my mom (rotten, actually) and has taken her all over the world. Hes also been the only grandfather my children have really known, and has been a caring and supportive surrogate father for me and my sisters. We used to laugh that he was like the Energizer bunny, ever ready to go and do something, and always with a big smile on his face. If you want to know how to save money, all you have to do is ask Fred. Hes perfected the art of squeezing everything he can from a dollar, and knows all the tricks. Yet hes generous with those he loves, which is why hes worked so hard to save what he has. What a great guy.
