John and Kevin, Linda and Alice...and all of your family. I keep you close in my thoughts and I pray for you in this heavy time of grief and loss. Your father was such a wonderful man, funny and quick-witted and quirky and gentle, and he loved you - and still loves you - so very, very much. As Gibran says, we are left with our faith that your Dad's soul is now unencumbered, free from his restless human body, and with God, now whole. Peace be with you - I am sending all of you condolences, hugs, and my love.
