Dad was waiting for us in Okinawa when Matthew came along!
Matthew Joel DeToy
Robert J. DeToy is not a name that will go down in the annals of
history......but only because the owner of that name chose not to. I believe
that. My father always could do anything. To this day I recall as clear as a
memory can be clear, my father making the "baby bounce" as his children gaped
and awed. The man had massive biceps, as now I do........ in my children's eyes.
My father lives in me. Half of the things I do, the jokes I tell, the projects I
build... were...are... and will be inspired by him. My boys already emulate me
in many ways (not always a positive character trait). In so doing, they are
emulating Robert J. DeToy. My children will carry a very large piece of their
paternal grandfather with them thru life and I am just one of seven. Think of
the impact this man has had and will continue to have on this planet.
He could have done anything, gone anywhere, been anyone. He
chose to raise children with a beautiful wife. He raised six wonderful
offspring..........talk amongst yourselves.
