Utah voices: Remembering my father and my daddy
2007
Overview
My father died Dec. 2, 2005, in Salt Lake City, but you probably didn't know him. Robert Herald Vipperman wasn't rich or famous, or even infamous. He was known only to his family, friends, neighbors, coworkers. Daddy was only 23 when I was born, when folk music was very popular. We sang \"Puff the Magic Dragon\" together and for years watched \"American Bandstand\" on Saturday mornings. He could be a kid himself, sometimes, sitting on the floor with us, playing games - but he could also be a strong, protective father. Nicholas Gage, in his book A Place for us: Eleni's Children in America, recalls when he realized his father was only a human being. Gage says his father had done the best he could, and though his father had made many mistakes, Gage knew his father never meant to disappoint his children.
