<p>Mr. Jimmy Arnett, my late father&#39;s best friend, hops on the show to tell about his family history from a few centuries ago to World War II, his birth a few years later in New Orleans, LA, his childhood moving to and from the Franklin, LA, area, his own father&#39;s untimely death, and a bond of friendship with my father and their friend group that began in the late 50s. He tells about his best friend&#39;s eating habits, the commanding presence my father maintained from the get-go, a car accident when they were young, food and football alongside Lake Pontchartrain while both students at LSU-NO, and a cascade of memories from the seven decades now behind him. We jump ahead to Mr. Jimmy&#39;s career and family, friends, music, and the last times we saw my father. We talk through Dad&#39;s fight with cancer, his death at 66, the wake and funeral that followed, and more memories of life with him.</p>
