At 6:20 PM on July 9th, 1999. A wonderful guy full of life and love and one heck of an outdoorsman and musician. A WW2 vet and IMO a posterboy for the greatest generation and incredible father...His cancer was discovered late and was a Gleason 9. Me on the otherhand diagnosed early and the results from my surgery seems to be excellent and prognosis good. I am here and feel lucky..but I sure miss my Dad today.

    you are your father's son
    you are your father's son,
    So sorry for your loss. Having such a wonderful father (as you describe) for a role model can only make you a better man. Remember him today by celebrating his life and the special memories he gave you. I'm sure he would be proud to know you are paying it forward.
    Sincerely,
    mrs pjd
