My family and I send our deepest sympathy.
In everyones life their are many people that affect them. In my life I have been lucky to a few men that have had a positive influence on me. Your dad was one of those men. No matter how things were going he always found a way to make lite of it. Some of my most memorable times were spent at "The lot" during the summer months, Those all so dangerous bottle rocket wars and gallons of vodka and 5 alive.
