Thanks for sharing your dad's life with us and your sorrow in losing him. That's what this thread is all about; to lift up others at all times, good and bad. May all old dawgs live such a full life. I'm so sorry for your loss Slo.

I'm so sorry Steve. I lost both my dad and grandfather to brain cancer so I know how hard it is. I am glad he was able to go surrounded by his family, that is a blessing.

Hugs to your entire family.

My condolences, Slo. The "Old Dawgs" tribute was neat. On a personal note, I was set back when I saw that I was born the same year as your dad. Take care.

Slo, I've been gone for the past week so am just now seeing this thread and then scrolled through and saw that he passed a couple days ago. I'm so sorry for your loss, yet thankful at the same time that you had the time with him that you did and that you obviously savored each moment together. May God's strength and peace sustain you all.

Slo--my condolences to you and your whole family. It must be tough, but it sounds like you have many years of good memories to sustain you in this time.

Need a fast half for late fall. Then I need to actually train for it.

My heartfelt condolences to you and your family Steve. You honor all of us by sharing your father's story and history and I hope he's at peace now. The Old Dawgs are marvelous and we should all be so lucky to have a circle around us like that.

I'll keep you and your mother and family in my thoughts and heart.

((Steve)) I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I am sure he was comforted knowing his loving family was around him and how wonderful to have the "Old Dawgs" celebrating his life wih you and your family. I will be keeping you all in my prayers.

Steve,

This thread is so poignant in the best sorta way....we see "spring hike," Your Dad as Grand Marshall, his riding buddies, and "he was surrounded by us all."

You and your family's love and dedication to him were so obviously manifest: he's done a great job.

During this time, take care of yourself and those around you.

My condolences, Steve. This was a very touching tribute thread for what clearly was a special relationship.

Be safe. Be kind.
