Description

Champaign townie, sadly now a Minnesotan, and one of my oldest friends shares feelings on a subject that he is often reluctant to talk about–the loss of his dad, Paul Senior, and his slow battle with early-onset Alzheimer’s.

 Listen as Dan emotionally recalls his dad as his number one coach, the first Christmas where a tradition was regretfully forgot, losing him at an Illini game and saying goodbye over and over. Dan has become an incredible dad of four because of the lessons he gleaned from his coach, this is clear in this short and sweet podcast highlighting one’s own mortality and the genetic concerns surrounding Alzheimers. The respect and love is clear in  each one of Dan’s words.

Each week I bring you a pod where townies and transplants share their tales of tears and triumphs, losses and wins.
