He married my mom when I was 12, and had me kicked out on my own when I was 17, so I really only lived under "his" roof for 5 years. My "best" memory of him? Him always calling me a "fat, stupid failure". Even when I was on my own at 17, he hated everything I did, mocked me, refused to allow a boyfriend in "his" house (because he hated Mexicans and my bf was Mexican), etc. etc. etc. Mom divorced him 10-13 years ago. I haven't seem him or his side of the family in 17-20 years. They're having a "memorial" for him on 4th of July. I don't know his family anymore, and I don't care to drive 4 hours round-trip on the 4th to remember a man who caused me so much pain.
Am I wrong not to go? His family were all nice enough, but it's been 20 years and I really don't care.
