He sounds like my dad. He was just a bit too young to enlist for WWII (4-5 years younger than your dad), but he is the same. Farm kid from North Texas. No Hospitals nearby. If you cut yourself, you bandaged it and got back to work. No one else to pick up the slack.

The only problem is he is not getting to the point (At 78) where he can't lift things anymore. You sound like you have a great dad and be happy and hope he is around for a long time.
