Best wishes to my buddy Jorge right now.

Thought those of you on this forum should know Jorge lost his father this week. However, Dad did outlast that communist MFer Fidel, and I hope it gave him some sense of satisfaction.

Anyway, I send comfort and prayers to the family.

Sorry for your loss, Jorge.

Oh, damn...

Condolences, Jorge.

Just now saw this gents. Thank you all very much. He passed away peacefully on his bed at home at the age of ninety five years and four months and change. He led an interesting life and I've related some of his stories here, particularly those involving Che' Guevara. Back to Miami tomorrow for the funeral. Once again thanks to all of you for your kind words.

I lost my Dad 30 years ago and I still think of him every day. My comfort has been to try to be as good a man as he was. He expected that of me. I'm sure your Dad expected that of you.
Be strong, for, finally, you are the Daddy now.

Sorry about your Pops Jorge, Godspeed.

My condolences Jorge. You and your family are in my prayers.

Prayers for you and your family.

My condolences Jorge. I hope you soon find peace and comfort.

My condolences Jorge.

I've passed my condolences via separate channels but will say it here as well. I never got a chance to meet the gentleman but he clearly was a great and useful influence on Jorge and will be missed.

Losing a parent is always so tough. Sorry to hear about this.

95 is a good innings and it sounds like he did a lot of living.

My sincere condolences.

My Sympathies, Jorge

Sorry for your loss, Jorge.

My condolences. Thinking about you in this delicate time.

My condolences, Jorge. 95+ is a damn good run!

Jeff

Prayers and sympathies go out to you my friend.

My condolences to you and your family! It's hard when you lose a parent, I lost my father 50 years ago come this August! I was 12 at the time! Outliving that Communist Fedel is just icing on a well lived life!

..prayers and positivity sent to you and your family Jorge.

May the pain of the loss be bearable as quickly as possible,

Jorge,

The pain of your loss is real and unavoidable. But I hope the comfort that your father - a goods man and a patriot -outlived the Tyrant, will hopefully provide you and your family comfort in your grief.

Condolences and may his soul rest in eternal glory.

Back home from Miami, gents. Everything went as well as could be expected, but once again my thanks to all of you for you kid words and sentiments.

J

My sincere condolences, Jorge. I am glad for your Dad and your family that he lived as long as he did. Very unusual, even in these days of such modern medicine.

Having outlived that tyrant and his clan, I am sure the satisfaction of that ran deep for him.

Rest in Peace, sir.

Jorge
Sorry for you loss. Condolence and prays this evening during pray time.

So glad Jorge's dad outlived Castro....I've heard things about Fidel that are literally too awful to repeat....

My sincere condolences on you're loss.

Condolences Jorge and your family.

Your dad raised a good son.

Best wishes, Chris

Jorge: I know it doesn't seem like it now, but you were a lucky man to have him in your life for so long, then have him pass peacefully. My father left the party way too young,and in a way I'd not choose for anyone.
Thank your lucky stars and dwell on the good times!

Gents, as long as this thread is alive, I will continue to respond with my thanks. Chui, you are absolutely right and my dad was indeed quite the man. Best I can describe him to you is the character Higgins in the TV show Magnum PI. Cheers, jorge

I'm more than a day late with this. I just saw it.
Jorge, condolences to you and your family.

Prayers for comfort.

Thanks, Hammer. MUCH appreciated.

Sorry for your loss Jorge and thanks for your service

Thank you very much.

Sorry for your loss Jorge...

Hi Jorge,
Sorry for your loss my friend.

Thanks, Doc.

Condolences to you and your family. Blessings and prayers for healing of your heart.

Thank you, Ed.

Condolences Jorge. I lost my father almost exactly 1 year ago on 02/20/16. In my father's case, no one saw it coming. One minute he was fine, and the next minute he was gone. He was 90. I hope you're getting everything situated, including your head, now that it's been a month, but it'll take a while. Good luck.

I'm good with it, thanks, SC. He just turned off like dimming a light.

My sincere apologies for my lateness (this is maybe the fourth time I ever visited this forum), but please accept my condolences for your loss, Jorge.

Thank you sir. Yes it's an old thread, he's been gone a month now, but as long as you kind folks keep posting, I am honored to respond and the response IS heartfelt.

Sorry for your loss Jorge.

I lost my Dad last July, certainly can relate..

Thank you very much, Brazos.

Sorry I didn't see this earlier Jorge. Prayers for you and yours. I lost my father a few years ago and it's hard to believe that now I am the patriarch of the family. The wheel goes 'round.

Thanks, Navy. Yes we all are getting to where there is more runway behind us than in front. Cheers, J

Yes, and struggling to get lift! :-)

My apologies as I just saw this. Please accept my condolences for your loss. Your father raised a fine son. And while I don't know him; that's all I need to know. Godspeed.

Thank you very much for the kind words CF. J

Jorge,

Sorry to be so late to extend my prayers and condolences for your loss. My dad passed away in 1991 and I still miss him,but knowing where are dads our now and that we will see them again is a great source of peace.

Doc: It's never too late and it is much appreciated. J

Jorge,

I've been out of pocket for an extended period, so am just now reading this. My condolences on your loss.

Thanks very much, Fost, much appreciated. I know you've had challenges recently as well.

Fost,

Good to see you post.

Best wishes from here!
