My sincerest condolences to your family. Your dad (and mom) were a dear friends to my parents. As a child, I remember him and my dad making their weekly trips to the junk yard for car parts so they could work on our cars. Our parents´ trip to Europe and then in later years, their weekly trips to the casino. He will be missed and y´all will be in my thoughts and prayers.
