He got a book and sat down with it. First time in maybe a year that he has been there. It must have given him comfort. <BR/><BR/>I am taking a road trip with my 85 year old dad this summer. You will see him as we are driving up from LA to go to The Dalles for a family reunion. <BR/><BR/>I am sorry for your loss.

My mom's father passed away suddenly when she was pregnant with Connie. My dad's mom died when I was five, and my mom's mother had Altzheimer's and died when I was 15 - but all my relatives were in Germany. I only knew my mom's mother since she'd come to visit a few times.<BR/><BR/>Anyway - Thanks for the sentiments. He did have a long, full life & all that knew him felt blessed for that.Tinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08828922734405535654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21838748.post-4599612968954939392008-05-26T23:09:00.000-07:002008-05-26T23:09:00.000-07:00I only met your Dad a few times, but I always enjo...I only met your Dad a few times, but I always enjoyed his company. It is obvious by the way everyone speaks of him that he was a wonderful man, and by the character of his daughters that he was a wonderful father.<BR/><BR/>Though his passing can't help but be sad, you shoud feel blessed to have had such a father, and that he lived long enough to enjoy his grandhildren.shoohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18072061163666081867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21838748.post-67039618644664497212008-05-26T11:48:00.000-07:002008-05-26T11:48:00.000-07:00I'd love to see the slide show.
