Brian...I got a "little teary" reading your story. And what a great story it is. I lost my dad 17 years ago and I still think of him almost everyday. One day he and mom were down visiting us and dad and I went for a ride. His health was declining and we knew time was limited. He never quite understood my passion for collecting Texaco stuff. We stopped at a little antique store to stretch our legs and went in. I walked right past a Texaco pump plate sign. He saw it and said, "What about this?"...Even though I had a few it was in nice condition and bought it. We got home and hung "his sign" in the garage. Whenever we chatted he often asked about "his sign." I wouldn't sell that sign for love nor money.
