Games on the Computer

Unfortunately, I have very few memories of Dad (even fewer than one would expect a 10 year old to have). However, I recall playing a game on our computer called "Storybook Weaver Deluxe". You would use templates for characters and scenery to make stories. On one occasion he helped me by providing the narrators voice for a story I had made about Spider-Man. While he attempted to narrate the story, he misnamed one of the characters. I corrected him and he kindly responded with, "Oh, I am sorry...that is [correct name of the character]." He must have loved being silly and enjoyed reading the stories I would write. We had that recording of his voice on the computer, and I would listen to it on occasion after he died. That may be why it is one of my few lingering memories. His voice was imprinted on my ears for several years after we lost the recording when junking the computer.
