My deepest sympathy to all of his family. Your father was such a kind man. I knew him since the 80's and we always had great conversations with a lot of laughs. I am so sad to hear of his passing and will miss him terribly. May the Good Lord give your Dad the peace and comfort that he had given to others. Our sincere condolences
