Tina, I am so sorry for this tremendous loss. We lost my father in July and I know, simply by watching my mom grieve her partner, how difficult it is. My heart goes out to you and your family. Stay strong and remember his love for you, and what he would've wanted for you. Praying that you will be comforted and strengthened by your family and your memories together.

He was a great friend and leader of the Kings Preparatory class of 1970. He stood up at my wedding in 2006 and we played many rounds of golf together. I will miss him and his phone calls but have many great memories.
