Let's go down the usual checklist:
Proud of a 43 year marriage cut short by her death, but she did most of the work.
Proud of how our two sons turned out, but she did most of the work.
Proud of still being financially secure as I turn 86, but she is mostly responsible for the investments.
Proud of putting together a successful career in a field I said I would never work in when my chosen field of journalism cratered and became largely extinct, and was thrown into supervisory, managerial, and executive roles at far too young an age to truly know what the hell I was doing, but then I put together a crackerjack staff who did a good portion of the heavy lifting.
So I guess what I am most proud of achieving is, I did it my way. 🤪
