Biology does not a Dad make. So very sorry you lost your's.
I can relate. I lost mine a lot of years ago. Cherish well and fondly the time you had with yours.
We may know the time Ben Carson lied, but does anyone know the time Hillary Clinton told the truth?

Brother, Uncle, Cousin, older friend down the steet, I don't care who it is one of the things this country has a serious dearth of is people like Ringworm's old friend that showed the young ones the ropes. Hell, Grandma would have mounted a trolling motor on her casket and kept fishing if the Lord didn't have other plans for her.
There's a guy that's not really that much younger than me, friend's roomate, that wants to go to the range with me and teach him about guns and shooting. Damn right I will. That'd be one more person who can be taught that Pelosi et al are full of crap. Don't any of you EVER think you've got something better to do than pass along things like hunting/fishing/guns etc because you better believe there are a LOT of people that would just as soon have it all die out.
If we don't do our part it just might.
If there's one thing I've become certain of it's that there's too much certainty in the world.

I see a two stroke triple Kaw in one of those pictures. Apperently he liked to go fast. I'm glad he decided when and how. I don't expect everyone to understand that, but I can. Sorry buddy.

1 of 3 Kaw's, convertible stang, a toronado, a 70's ford PU and a V-12 benz. plus a restored criss-craft. he liked his toys. I grew up standing on the line watching him race, riding in the back of the ford up the mountains to go trout fishing, get drug behind the boat on an innertube, shooting misletoe out of trees w/ a apache 22. great fun. hell of a guy. im just worried how the papers are going to make it look come tommorow AM. people who dont know cant understand.

sorry to hear it. If we can do anything let us know.
And as others have said, its all better now and DON"T forget to pass along what he did for/with you. Paying it forward as they say.
You are a better man because of him.
thoughts prayers and sympathies to you and his family. VERY tough boat to be in thats for sure.
Cool pics by the way. Great way to remember him as he was.

people who dont know cant understand. They don't matter. If any do, you can tell them. You have a way of explaining things.

Cancer is a terrible enemy; what he did took courage and you can take solace in that.
I'm very sorry for the loss of your mentor and surrogate dad.
