Re: Been a little preoccupied
Sorry for you and you family's loss. But your father has created much. And he's left a great heritage in his family. The creations of his craft will live on.
Peace be with you and your family.
Chris

A life well lived deserves to be well ended. You're doing it the right way.

Re: Been a little preoccupied
With tears of sadness flowing from my eyes, and my heart so heavy with grief, my most sincere condolences to you and your family on the loss of your wonderful father and family patriarch. May you all take solace during these hardest of time, that he lived his life to the fullest, loved all of you to his greatest extent, and left you with your most cherished memories. I am so sorry for your loss.

Thanks to all of you. We buried him yesterday and it started to rain. Rained all night, breaking the drought. Coincidence, hell no, he fixed the plumbing.

Re: Been a little preoccupied
My sincerest condolences for your loss, Leland. Having lost my dad almost 3 years ago, I can empathize and sympathize with what you're going through. The only advice I can give is cry or laugh when you need to and talk about him often. His legacy lives through you.
I wish you the best while you navigate this new experience.

My condolences to you and your family. Building a garage at 90, now that is incredible!

Re: Been a little preoccupied
I was thinking of you and your dad this weekend (Sept 1 & 2) as I drove to Springfield to move my wife's father back to Wichita to be with the rest of his family. When we drove by Parsons, the rains started. It rained all day Saturday into the night. Finally, Sunday morning brought beautiful sunshine and mild temperatures. It was very refreshing.LelandCrooks wrote:Thanks to all of you. We buried him yesterday and it started to rain. Rained all night, breaking the drought. Coincidence, hell no, he fixed the plumbing.
And then again on the way home, I looked to Parsons as we drove by and thought about you and your family. We've all got to enjoy the precious moments we have together.
And of course, enjoy the sounds emanating from the many acoustical engines.
Cheers LeLand.
