Very sorry to hear about your Dads passing Doug. I have exchanged a few emails with him over the year. I know it was tough on him when he moved out of the valley. He will truly be missed. They don't make them like him anymore. RIP and God bless you Ida!!

What terrible news Doug. My sincerest condolences for your loss. While always tragic to lose a loved one but be comforted in the fact that your dad lived the hell out of life. Thats all we can really ask for in this short blip on earth. Mourn his passing but hold your head high as you reflect on all the adventures you had with him.  Thats what any dad would want from their sons.
It is foolish and wrong to mourn these men.  Rather, we should thank god that such men lived.  -General George S. Patton
