Kate, I never met your Dad I don't believe but when I lost my husband last year a classmate of your Dad he was constantly supportive to me and this I will never forget. It was so wonderful to see his posts all the time of his pride in you. May GOD give you strength during this time, my prayers for you today and in the future.
