He sounded like a wonderful man and your description of Vernor's and the "Toronto-Detroit Deli Corridor" brought a huge smile to my face! I grew up in Detroit but moved to San Diego in my mid 20s and missed drinking Vernors for years until some of the grocery stores starting stocking it. That stuff has its own unique wonderful taste and effervescence - I can see why your father-in-law subsisted on it the last week of his wife. Its has a very comforting, warm, rich feeling on one's palate. My sincere condolences to your family. Your father-in-law sounds like someone I would have LOVED to fress with!
