Thanks guys, we where the lucky one's. If I can be the half a dad my dad was I will be proud. I will strive to do that. Thanks for everything. I felt alone in this besides my immediate family but since I've learned how many of you care. I'm humbled and speechless for the support I've received from you.:hail

Dad and mom have been married for 51 years. I fear mom will leave us soon without dad.

This was Christmas Day 2006



Dad doing what he loved to do. I have a lot of photos and video I need to compile.



I failed to take many pics this year of Christmas because I allowed my Son Alex (6) to take most of them.

Alex had a ton of fun but I really wished I would have took some good pictures of dad since this was

his last Christmas with us. I knew Christmas felt wierd this year and now I know why.

That was very well said Del.
Also great to see photos of your dad, I'm sure he's proud of his son.

My condolences Del to you and your family. Lost my father in July also. Years ago when I got my first cycle I pulled up in front of the porch where my mother and father were standing. I said "this is what I do when I drag race" and screamed away with the rear tire smoking. My brother said my mom turned to my dad and said "I don't like that at all" Dad replied-hell, he's in the Navy he can drive what he wants. Good old dad.

Thanks guys. I always thought mom would pass first this does not seem real to us but we know it is. I will build a website in honor of my dad with pictures and video he did. The man at age 69 started learning how to operate a computer and became pretty good with croping, editing and resizing images. He loved printing off those pictures. I think he was as good as I am in this area.

We are both dealing with this pretty much in the same way.
