Hey Kevin,
I was so very sorry to hear about the loss of your father, I hope you and Meaghan and family are holding up during what may feel like an already devastating and challenging time.
I read your note which really moved me, and I know all of my whole family is thinking of you guys and the memories we have of Mr. Mulcair. Our deepest condolences.
Everyone in your household were always kind to the Barfoot’s and I remember you and I hanging at Hornbeam a lot and I’d occasionally see your Dad. He was always so gentle and kind, and I remember learning at an early age how skilled of a photographer he was. Whenever I saw his work I always blown away at the eye he seemed to put into his pictures.
I remember when he first was showing you (and us both) Pink Floyd – Dark Side of The Moon. At our house, we always had country on, the Eagles, Elton John etc. I had never heard anything like it. But so many times I remember going over and the Floyd was playing and you and Peter would joke about it. ‘Money’ got played a lot there, and it always sounded good.
I think one of the ones that stands out the most, (and you told this story numerous times), was when you told the story of Peter trying to park a car on an upward hill and failing, and the family teased him ‘You just couldn’t get it up Peter, could you And you’d laugh hard every time it came up and would tell me.
I’ll remember him as a family man, a kind and quiet guy. We’ll be thinking of you guys, stay strong man.
I’d like to think somewhere up there, Peter is in a little corner with trees and woods, beautiful photos of the world and nature, and Pink Floyd blasting in the background.
