Dad used to have coffee every day at King's with Maudie and Larry Johnson and many others over the years. Each day they would buy a couple of scratch tickets and enjoy each others' company. So when I heard that the restaurant was closing I thought that we should honor Dad's memory. Jimmy wore Dad's SSR hat, adjusted to Dad's head size not Jimmy's, we all took some scratch tickets and I took the photo of Mom and Dad. Jim and Kim won back their ticket investment, Lor went bust, I won some - just enough to buy a 6/49 ticket - exactly what Dad would have done!
