Ever since Dad got leukemia, his brother has been by his side. Stanley is a good brother, that's something that can't be denied. Stanley is Dad's only sibling, he has no other.
Today my dad turned sixty-five. He's very ill but he's still alive. He was diagnosed with leukemia in 2011. He was born on this day back in 1947. Even though he's sick, he's holding his own.
You were born in 1924 and you died in 2011. You died one year ago today at the age of 87. My grandparents gave me one of your records in the late seventies.
