I'm a father of two boys and my goal in life is to have my children feel the same way about me as you do about your father. It sounds like he touched so many lives and therefore he will be with you always in your heart, soul, and mind. God bless you and your family is in our thoughts and prayers.

Don, I couldn't say anything that hasn't been said already by this great group of guys.

I am sorry for your loss, but it must be a relief to know he is now beyond the pain and suffering and at peace.

All the best.

Don,

So much has already been said that I'd just like to echo the thoughts of all the other lads who've posted. Your dad clearly touched the lives of many, including all of us here, and I hope knowing that provides some comfort. Best wishes, you're in my thoughts.

My condolances Don. The strength of your family as you have described them these past months is amazing, and will very much be needed now. Perhaps that strength is one of your fathers legacies, and a pretty damn good one it is.

My deepest sympathies on your loss. I know how hard it can be on a family when a member has suffered serious medical problems. My father has been on a ventilator for about 2 years now, suffering from ALS.

My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family.
