My good friend Tim lost his dad (pictured) this week. I met Tim's dad briefly and did not know him that well but I must say he must have been very special because he raised one hell of a son. I assume that most of us are a reflection of our parents in one way or another. Since Tim is such a caring, giving person, I have to assume his dad was as well. I feel very sad for Tim's loss and wish there was something I could do to help. My prayers are with Tim and Colleen and their family.

Gary, thank you for the kind words about my Dad. He was a very special person - known and loved not only by our family, but also by an extended group of friends.

Over the last 5 days, I was reminded by his friends and our family how he was able to blur the lines between the two, such that family are friends and friends are family.

We are very sad that we will not share again with his person, but are relieved that he is with his wife, sisters and friends. I think they are playing pinochle right now...I just hope that his partner is counting cards!
