The daughter though wanted to know more about her biological father so she contacted some of us via Facebook. I am learning some stuff about bartending and more gossip about Reno, Nevada. I have not been back there since 1994 or so but we did live there for 15 years or so. Me for 14 as I was away at the University of Denver getting a MA in Librarianship and Information Management at their Graduate School of Librarianship and Information Management. The last time I had a lot of experience with bartenders was when us library students went out drinking and dancing frequently after a not so hard day of studying. I got a little experience with bartenders while at the University of Minnesota Law School but rarely had much time for partying as the study and work at the Law Library was hard-going.

I do have a renewed interest in bartenders though even though I do not drink any more. We lost my younger brother Chuck last December to long term alcoholism. Kind of ironic that his daughter is now a bartender.

Sorry for your loss. Yes, it is strange sometimes to see the way some things play out. Hope you were able to help your niece learn more about her dad.
