Magnolia Fractal by Marion Lyons

I was lucky enough to have two great fathers - my biological father Reg and my step-father Cyril, who was every bit as good a dad as any real father could be. As I wrote on my About Me page, my father was killed in Korea in early 1951 and my mother remarried a few years later so Cyril became my dad. Unfortunately he too died in 1983, after we had emigrated out here to Australia, and I regret very much that I never had the chance to say a proper goodbye to either of them. This page is for them and also for others in our families who are no longer with us - although they live on in our memories. |
