In our short time together, my dad gave me everything: his love and attention, his values and passions. When he died, I was certain my purpose in life was to, to seamlessly carry on his legacy, to leave no separation between where Christopher Reeve ended and where Will Reeve began.
I'd dreamed of coming to Alaska because my dad loved it. We'd always talked about visiting together some day, maybe when he could walk again. What an ideal place to honor him on Father's Day weekend, I thought, especially since I'm here for a job that I cherish and work hard at. There's a municipal airport nearby, and hearing the thrum of the propellers of bush planes like my dad flew here -- when he was the man on my screen -- made me emotional. With those sentiments swirling, my dad let me know that I was in the right place. As I'm driving past the municipal airport, seeing those planes my dad flew way back when, admiring the views that surpass imagination, I see a street sign:"Reeve Blvd."It may not seem like much. It's a street name.
