Andy Williams | Gary and Darrell, Sorry to hear of your Dad's passing. It is tough losing a Dad, even tougher when it's your Mom. I lost my Dad June 30th. The past month has been strange. You were blessed with Great parents. I remember the oil road behind our houses we would ride bikes on, and I remember helping your Dad patch holes in sheet metal roofing with lead pellets and a hammer. It was a good memory. Keep the good thoughts in your minds and keep your Dad's spirit alive. | 8/3/2010 12:00 AM |
