Laura, Christie, and Mike... my thoughts are with all of you during this difficult time. Your dad was an amazing man and I'm glad that I had the opportunity to have him as a step father. I will always cherish the great memories we shared as we were growing up. (Unfortunately, I was just informed of his passing this evening; otherwise I would of made an appearance on behalf of my side of the family). Laura asked me to express her condolences as well.
