After A Time is dedicated to my dad, Gerry Salzler. Years ago, I amassed enough frequent flyer points to take him on a trip to the western states of the US. When I called and gave him three days to decide where he wanted to go, he was so excited and it made me smile to think I could make him that happy. However, the trip never eventuated because of circumstances neither he nor I could control.
Dad passed away in 2014, shortly after his seventy-fifth birthday. He never made it past the Pennsylvania/Ohio border. Dad, I hope your soul has traveled the world over and maybe one day when our souls meet again, we can see those sights together.
