We are so sad to learn of your Dad's passing. Shared many, many memories with him both while working with him at the City of Virginia Beach's old data processing and Information technology department. Also share times cannoing on the river with other co-workers. He truly was a unique guy and will be missed. Our sincere sympathy.
