my dad died today

He did as much as anyone who could have ever done.

Storys of crazy stuff your dad did is necessary.

Sorry Timmah.

I have lots of stories about my dad but I can't post them here. Let's just say he had a green thumb.

Sorry for your loss, I've been there and it is not easy.

My dad was a ball buster and loved to help me work on carpentry projects. It used to drive me crazy because he would constantly clean up the area I was working in and then use the air nozzle and blow himself off. ( he hated being dirty ) So one day, at the end of the day he went to use the restroom. While he was gone I took the air nozzle off the air hose and filled it with blue chalk. As planned he returned and cleaned up and blew off.....to his surprise, when he opened his eyes he was BLUE!!! These kind of things happened offen but he usually did the pranks. Felt good to get him back.

I'm very sorry to hear this Tim. I miss my dad every day . I understand where you are.

My dad was a mischievous, hard drinking, cantankerous, and often funny guy that used to spy on the Russians. I'd say more but...

Sorry for your loss Timmah. Be happy for the times you had. I lost my hero 28 years ago when I was only 18 but learned quite a bit in that time.

Condolences to you and your family... T's & P's sent.

My Dad has heart problems, and has had a few heart attacks, the latest was a mild one a couple of days ago. Makes you cherish your time together a whole lot more. Don't even want to think about losing him someday.

Sorry. Death is a hard one to fathom. Whatever you're feeling right now someone else right down the street is feeling it too. I took solace in that when my father died. A kind of safety in numbers thing for those of us left behind. Death sucks. No doubt about it.

My deepest condolences. I've gone through alot in the past 10 years. Often my Dad says "I dunno how you do it"... I just look at him and say "You would do the exact same thing if it was mom." It's true. Alot of the best parts of me come from them.

Sorry to hear this Tim
keep his memories alive, he's still a part of you

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.
