Andy, Jr., I am sorry to hear about your dad, however from the news article it appears you had time to be with him. My father died recently, he was in NJ and my being in FL I didn't get to see him very often. It was unexpected, he was 84. I think of him daily. I hope your mom will be all right, they were together such a long time. My thoughts are with you. Sincerely, Sally Swan (we met when I worked for the Naples Boat Club)
