Mom and Dad

My father abandoned my mother, and went back to his first wife Audrey. My father and mother were married in Grasse France, in 1946. I was born in 1947. My father never came to USA or spoke a word of English. He was Legion of Honor in France and he had a red boutonier on his lapel. He was a rated bridge player, when bridge was a thing, and he made enough betting on bridge to have a big apartment in Paris, and a villa on the Cote D’Azure. He was a Colonel and served directly under DeGaulle. He killed a lot of Nazis in France. He was kind to me and took me for Summers in Arosa, Cannes, St. Juan les Pins, and Kitzbuhel.
