My Dad (Rolf) had a jovial personality, a huge laugh and he enjoyed everything every day. He could talk up a storm with everyone and had a knack of making people feel that they had known him for years. (My brother, Richard, had that trait too). He was a fairly good businessman and could probably sell anything that he believed in. For some reason you found it an honor to buy stuff from him because he personalized it so!
He was a great bacteriologist, studied at Mass Aggie and became the youngest state farm inspector on record at the time. I grew up with massive gardens in the back yard and chickens, and although we didn't have hogs at our house, he had a buncch of them that he kept someplace else, and he aged his own hams in our attic (Yum!). Mother and Dad canned all their veggies, and she made jams and jellies and pickles and all that (Norwegian) stuff... and, Oh Yes!!, it was stored on the nooks and shelves along the sides of the stairs leading down into the cellar.
Dad was very careful of what we ate. Food was NEVER kept even in the fridge for longer than 3 days. NEVER. I can remember mother tossing out steaks and hamburg and other stuff when it looked like it was just getting ready to eat. But he had an obsession with food going bad and liked to eat everything fresh, and we did!
And so, I would pass along that compassion, ability to laugh out loud at all good things, deep spirituality and love of life would define the Robshams that I knew and grew up with (my Dad, Telma (his sister), brothers OC & Siguard, Margarite (his sister).
