<p>[QUOTE=&quot;halfcent1793, post: 4490429, member: 86853&quot;]My mom passed Mothers&#039; Day weekend of 2001. She married my dad when he was on leave from the Army just after Pearl Harbor. They didn&#039;t see each other for almost 4 years after that. She had a s=career as an executive secretary during the war, but quit to raise me and my brother; then she went back to work when my brother was in high school.</p><p><br /></p><p>She started me on coin collecting by giving me a group of coins that she had from when she was a girl. It included a VG 1808-S Indian cent and a very nice quarter eagle that had been in her grandpa&#039;s pocket when he died. </p><p><br /></p><p>I still have both coins, and I think about her every day.</p><p><br /></p><p>They say that to succeed in this world, the most important thing you can do is choose your parents well. I did.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
