Sal's father is a loving, gentle, almost too perfect man. Sal's father takes Sal to Euclid, Ohio shortly after his wife's death because he is overwhelmed by grief for her at the farm. Sal's father, struggling with his own overwhelming sense of loss, tries to deal, patiently and compassionately with Sal's anger, confusion, and rebelliousness. When they move to Euclid, he allows Sal to spend to spend her time as she likes, often away from him. Ironically, his sweetness and gentleness often saddened Sal's mother, making her feel thoughtless and selfish in comparison.
