Melanie, I was the singer with the band your dad played bass in. I am so sorry for your loss. He was a great guy, humble and hilarious at the same time. I have so many stories to share with you if you wish to hear them. I hope Legacy sends a notice to you that I wrote. If my name is displayed, I'm on FB. I hope they share my email.
