My dearest friend and comrade in arms passed away about two years ago. My friend (a brother, unrelated to me actually) had assumed the gravity of fielding calls from distraught fathers and tried to shepherd them through the smoke of the dissolutions of their marriages involving minor children. I, after becoming unable to endure those desperate pleadings, instead focused myself on the law.

During that time, I stumbled across an article in the newspaper wherein a father had bulldozed down the marital home in an obscene act of defeat and defiance.

In addition to pity for him, I thought to myself, I understand it.
