The tragic news of his deathcame from theJeopardy!Twitter accounton Sunday, Nov. 8: “Jeopardy!
Thank you, Alex.”
One morning, I drew him this ‘World’s Greatest Dad’ sign.
He’s kept it on the front of his office door ever since, even 18 years later.
I’m so proud to be his daughter.
He is the most caring and supportive father and truly is the World’s Greatest Dad."
“I have always been interested in homes.
When I was little, I wanted to be an architect.
After graduating, I decided to get into real estate.
“During open houses, dad came to every serious showing.
He would look in crawl spaces, in electricity panels, at water heaters.
He was looking in all those places where a lot of hidden costs could be.
So it was helpful for him to be there at every house.”
He got his hands dirty and fixed anything he could on his own.
His daughter explained that she learned so much just from watching him work.
Emily ended her story, making it clear how much her dad’s involvement meant to her.
“I don’t have words to express how much it means to me that he helped.
I don’t have the words to make it sound as significant as I feel,” she said.
