“All is well in the family. With 3 grown up sons, a healthy wife to help me around the shop, there’s not much I can complain about. Sometimes, I also work as a mason, building houses and that fetches me some more money. All is well. But I never saw my father. If father had lived I wouldn’t have to use my thumb for signatures. Maybe, he would have put me in school. That is the only thing. Otherwise, all is well in the family.”
