Although not wealthy (he was a steelworker, raising 5 kids), he was a generous tipper and round-buyer, and was always friendly and nice to the waitstaff--traits I try to emulate. And either one or both of my parents did instill in me a basic value of honesty, the belief that lying is a really terrible and wrong thing to do. So for all their flaws (and there were many), I do appreciate that. Ok, so I will give a shout-out to my dad for the great bar etiquette he taught me.
