July 5th is a sad day.....

[Franco]

Sorry for the loss Stink, My dad is 84 tomorrow, retired after 30 years in the nave, served in the pacific during WWII, he has alzheimers and I see him declining slowly over time. He also has a leaking heart valve and is on several medications. My dad lives with me, we built him his own little wing on the new house. I get nervous on those mornings when he sleeps late, and when I get a call from home I always get a twinge. My thoughts are with you. I know it's little consulation, but he is through with his suffering and on to a better place.
