When did you meet Mickey?
2012

Where did you meet him?
He’s Abby’s dad

Memory of Mickey
Mostly he’s my dear friend Abby’s daddy. Without him, Abby wouldn’t be who she is. And I really like how she is. Aside from that, we bonded over coloring. I love to color and do it pretty much every day. On various holidays, I liked to bring a stash (albeit only a small part of my overall stash) to Abby’s to sit on the porch and color with Mickey, and whoever else was around, enjoy a coffee and conversation. He was much more vibrant with his use of color than I am – he liked the neons. Regardless, I love that this man of science validated that coloring was a good thing. I intend to do more coloring on Abby’s porch, and when we do, we’re going to raise our coffee cups and think of Mickey.
