Howdy,

Because I have my father's name (K.) and my father left one night while my mom, sister and I were at the movies. I was four (1972) and he left us with a house payment, car payment and never to see a dime in support. So, not a name I am real proud of.

If you will notice, I have already changed my name for this board and always use my full name, K. David Marple, to include the K. so I never forget his name and what he did.
