Last night, my father passed away. He'll be missed by me, all of his kids, his wife, my grandmother, his brothers, and our other friends and family.

Overall, he was a good guy that did some important things but he has been sick for the past 10 years so. He was kind of playing with the house's money anyway. Miss ya Dad...

But I wanted to pass along that I'll be offline a little over the next few days and that I might not be able to make Cuttyhunk this weekend (although that may be just what the doctor ordered). I still want to try but I won't know either way until later this week.

Everyone that can, give a little extra hug to yuor dads this weekend. I know I'll be hugging my son...

Thanks,

John

So sorry to here that, John. :(

It is always tough, but must be especially so with the holiday this weekend.

My and Donna's toughts will be with you and your family.

Hopefully, he is in a land full of fish, or full of whatever he enjoyed most. :)

John,

If I may speak for us as a group here at S-B, we ALL have you, your family and your father in our prayers. A difficult time no doubt. Many of us have been through this loss, myself included. Never a good time, (my father passed away on a Christmas Eve) but we can only be assured they are OK and no longer suffering. Stick close with your family, rely on your faith, and reach out to friends who are there for you when you need it.

We're here if you need a voice at the other end of the line.

Best to the family.

Ross

John,

sorry to hear that john, my condolences goes out to you and your family.

JOHN, Sorry to here of the loss of your dad, My deepest sympathy to you and your family.

John, you have Karen and my best wishes.

As you know, I will have a rare chance to see my dad for the next few days. He will be up wednesday night to fish for several days. That to me, is as quality of time as we can spend together. I think it will mean a little bit more to me, knowing what you are going through.

I generally only see him 2 or 3 times a year, but we usually make those times count by spending that time out on the water.

Hey, you need to talk or whatever... when you take care of what you need to take care of, let's set a day and get together and fish.. cool?

Weekend or weekday (I'll take a day off), whatever, let's just get together.

Take it very easy.

I'm sorry to hear about your loss John. My condolences go out to you and your family.

Tony

Bad news John. If there's any way I can help out , just call. I'm right up the road.

Sit alone and think about the past. Then sit with your son and think about the future. Both will make you cry but its good for you.

Sorry for your lose.
Mike

Never easy to loose a loved one. No doubt you are in all our prayers and I think I speak for most of us when I say if you need anything....just ask!

John, I'm sorry to hear about your loss:(. You and yours will be in my thoughts. If you can't make Cutty and I don't either (for my own wacky family reasons), maybe we can hook up for a morning excursion out of Scituate. Like you I'm calling this one late in the week, so I'll pop you an email or a post later. Hang tough.

John sorry to hear about your dad.

John,

I am truly sorry to hear of your father's passing.

May he rest in peace and may his memory sustain you and your loved ones.

JohnR, Gwen & Liam, we are sorry to hear the sad news. I have had many deaths in my family and no matter how much you know its going to happen it is still never easy to lose someone you love. You are in our prayers and hope that God helps ease your pain and sadness. I am also getting a rare opportunity this weekend as my dad and mom are coming back up from PA for about a week to do a little Harbor fishing on the boat. Can't wait to see him and mom as I only get to see them about 4 times a year, but talk to them every day. Hang in there John, if you need anything let us know.

John, My condolences to you and your family.
Jim

John, if you truly believe that...then let those words be the strength that carry you thru your sad moments.

...Keep your faith in the Lord, and everything else will work its way out. We sometimes forget that this "world" is a just a test, something to prepare us for our "real" future. We get tested everyday, whether we know it or not, and sometimes the tests are difficult. I believe the absence left by someone's death to be one of my more difficult tests to cope with but as long as we strive to stay on the right paths, we'll get thru them. You said that overall, he was a good guy that did some important things...

John...what you don't realize is that one of the most important things he did...was to raise a great son. The little time that I've known you, you've shown me that you have a great compassion for your fellow man, your a caring person...and you mention your own son quite frequently ..which leads me to believe that you are inspiring your son in the same ways your father inspired you and are following in your father's foot steps. Those are all important traits that your father helped install in you. Take pride in your father, and take pride in yourself. Smile, knowing that he is in "OUR" Father's care now, feeling NO more pain...but looking down upon his son, and feeling proud of him. John, use his death as a tool to remind you to keep your relationship just as strong, if not stronger with your own son. GOD bless you and your family, may he help you keep your chin up and continue to lead you down the correct paths. I'm not a preacher, but I believe FIRMLY in the Lord...and we don't always understand what happens or why he does things, but we have to learn to keep our faith strong. Once again, God Bless ~

My deepest regards to you and your family
