My deepest sympathy in the loss of your father. My own dad has been gone 27 years. I still think of him often. Also, I am saddened that another WWII veteran, who helped preserve the freedom we enjoy today, is gone from us. May God smile upon him and comfort you and your family at this time.

Best regards,
Rob Clarke
