Wikipedia [IMAGE CREDITS]Arriving two (2) months early, George Keegan Jr. entered this world on the 4th of July... 1921. From the beginning, my father was a fighter. Being born prematurely, the odds were stacked against him in 1921. He or his mother seemed determined he'd enter the world on such a special day.
My grandmother, Ming, was a force of nature. Strong willed, focused and resourceful, she nurtured him and made him strong. However, his skin was always susceptable to sun and he was allergic to milk and onions, keeping him on his toes the rest of his life.
My father always had great purpose, even when he was growing up. I think this was due to his mother's inner strength which was a guiding light throughout his life.
Being born on the 4th of July was a special part of his patriotic nature. In some spiritual way it seemed to carry him through much of his journey.
