        My condolensces to you and your family for his loss. How fortunate that he was part of your lives though.

        I'm sharing in your mourning, having just lost a dear uncle to cancer yesterday...also a great man. 6 weeks from former good health to death after the diagnosis.
        Happiness is sort of like wetting your pants....everyone can see it, but only you can feel the warmth.

            Larry,

            I'm truly sorry for your loss. My father passed on when I was 12, never really got a chance to know him.

            I'll pray for him tonight at temple, hope you don't mind prayers in Hebrew.

              Larry,

              May he rest in piece, and may you be surrounded and comforted by the years of pleasant memories.

                Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

                Lost my dad suddenly when I was about 31. He was the inspiration for my woodworking. I still hear his voice in my head either when something works well or I screw up. The loss of physical presence is unavoidable. No one can take away the memories.

                    Sorry for your lost as well... glad to hear that he was a great Dad. My wife did not have the same fortune as you with her first step father. My wife was treated with the constance statement of "that's not my kid".

                      You guys are the greatest. Belinda and I both really appreciate all your thoughts.

                      Since I posted this morning, some things have firmed up. We will be leaving here Sunday morning and driving straight through. We should arrive Sunday evening. My brothers and I will be visiting with the lawyer Monday getting everything ironed out. The visitation will be Thursday evening and the service Friday. We will be coming home Saturday/Sunday.

                      Again, thank you one and all for your thoughts and prayers.

                              He was indeed a special man. How great a loss for you and for the world that such a man has completed his walk. God bless you and your family with peace and comfort.
                              Blessings,

                                That's very sad new Larry. Thank you for telling us a little about your dad.
