Which Reminds Me

I do remember that my Dad had an uncle named Ben but he is dead now and, anyway, I don't remember anything about him, just that he existed. His second wife was a lady from the Dominican Republic but I never met her. I imagine that she is probably dead now, and anyway there were no Spanish children in the family, certainly not mine. Reading through great-grandmother's diaries, we learn that Uncle Ben and his first wife had a daughter named Lori and a son named Benjamin but of those persons' lives I know nothing at all, only that they lived for some time in San Francisco. Oh, I didn't know that. Even so, I am not aware of any "big deal" in regards to Uncle Ben so obviously I cannot be expected to comment about nothing.
