(By the way, his name was E. Knight Worth. He went by "Knight," and my mother's print of "Galahad," which one of her girlfriends gave her when she got engaged to my father, was one of her prized possessions. I have it still.)
My old man's gone by a nickname for 84 years after being saddled with a first name he hates. Funny thing is, his father had the same first name and wouldn't use it either but then went ahead and slapped it on the first son. Go figure.

That's beyond bitter. That's kinda cruel.
