Jamie & Family,
I think you already know how your Fathers passing has affected us. We are so heartbroken, I think the only thing that makes us feel better is knowing he is no longer in pain.... as he would often say,so much for the Golden Years ! We Will Always Miss Him...Love Him...and think Fondly of Him...He was a Loving Friend.
