I lost my father Sunday evening, he had heart complications. He was 66 years old, far too young to go, we all thought we would have many more years of his craziness to enjoy. He was the very best father us 3 kids could have asked for, a great, gentle man with an awesome sense of humor. His absence has left an enormous void in our lives, it hurts to think that I'll never hear his voice again. Him & I were big baseball freaks, him an Angel fan & me a Cub fan, he would call me an hour or so before every nationaly televised Cub game to make sure I was gonna watch. After every big play, a cubbie homer, my cell phone would ring with him screaming & cheering on the other end..........I'll never get that call again. He was a great fisherman, taught me everything I know. We went sportfishing often & he always caught the bigger fish as you can see in the pics. He always had time for me, my brother & sister. I love you Pop, you are so very missed & will never be forgotten.

Sorry to hear about your Dad Mighty Man. I know how you feel as I lost my Mom yesterday. God bless 'em both. We must go on and I especially have to be a good example for my grandkids and children. I have some big spaces to fill but Mom always taught me best. So very sorry. Monty
Don't make me loose the hounds! If you dig, Cover up your holes.
Mighty AP:
I'm older than your dad would be today and I can tell you that I'd be very proud to be loved so deeply by my kids as your love for your dad. You are both blessed.

I'm so sorry for your loss. My deepest sympathies.

When you get into a tight place and everything goes against
you till it seems you could not hold on a minute longer,
never give up then for that is just the place and time that
the tide will turn.
