Dave, my heartfelt condolences. I miss my dad a lot.....and I know how much it hurts. I hope the memories of the long life he lived will stay with you and comfort you. He, you and your family will be in my prayers. I'm sure he'll be looking down on you and watching over you.

I'm sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you, and your family.
"Filled with mingled cream and amber
I will drain that glass again.
Such hilarious visions clamber
Through the chambers of my brain
-- Quaintest thoughts -- Queerest fancies
Come to life and fade away;
Who cares how time advances?
I am drinking ale today."

Edgar Allan Poe
