You were truly blessed to have had this man as your father. What a MAN!
May the memories of your life with him continue to bless you in the coming days.
You will see him again.
May he rest in peace without pain now and forever.
May your sorrows be tempered knowing he is at peace and out of pain.
And may God bless you and your family n this time of sorrow.

Very cool tribute.
You were closer to your Dad than many.
And he was closer to you than a lot.

Condolences to all, and R.I.P. Sir.

Idaho Shooter, I don’t have the words!


If we live long enough, we all have regrets. But the ones that nag at us the most are the ones in which we know we had a choice.

Our parents, our grandparents, our friends. When it comes down to it, they are worth more than all else combined. Sorry for your loss but thankful to read of a good life, well lived. I would have liked to have met your dad. These were the people who built the country. Largely unseen and under-appreciated, they were the heart of the nation. GD

A wonderful tribute written by a loving, respectful son. A man really can’t ask for more than that at his passing.

Prayers for you and your family.

Sorry for your loss. Sounds like he lived a full life and was a hardworking man. They made them tougher back then. R.I.P

Sorry for your loss, what an example you had for a father. My dad is a year older, with terminal cancer. But you'd never know it by the way he acts.

Damn, these old guys were tough. We sure have it good now.

Best thing I've read here today. Thanks for sharing part of your life with us, from the sounds of it a very large and important part of yours and your family's lives.

May you and your family rest in the peace of knowing he did well.

Lots of friends or family have commented to me about how hard I had to work growing up, sometimes not in the most complimentary of ways.

I remember back in the Spring of 1983 just before my one and only and I were married. I told one such, "That is what made me the man I am today. If it formed me to be the man this woman will love, I would not change a thing."

Thanks again to all for the kind words and well wishes. We do appreciate it all.

Finally the allergies are subsiding. There were many touching words here tonight.

It's a heckuva thing to lose a father who was a good man.

Very sorry for your loss.

Your words warm the heart and speak volumes about you and your father. I rather imagine he is smiling now.
