  Lost my best teacher today

My Father was called back to his maker today, Dad was 95 living all but the last few months with robust health. He probably saw more change in his lifetime than any generation before him. He and his eleven brothers and sisters lived thru the great depression, dust bowl,watched their widdowed mother lose the farm in the deperssion. He taught me the value of honesty, hard work, frugality, and the ability to make something usefull out of almost nothing. I and my family will miss him of course, but God put him on this earth to do a job, he did it well and now has gone home to rest, we'll carry his values on from here. Only thing I never understood about Dad is how a man so conservative could bave been such a staunch Democrat. Frank.

Thanks to all for your words of kindness. Good friends and family are much more valuable than any material thing we have. Your kindness will not be forgotten. Frank, Lucile and Family.

Again let me thank everyone for their thoughts of kindness. All of you like the community we live in have been so good to us in our time of sorrow. Yes it will take some time to get used to being without Dad, but he's now enjoying the reward we all hope to attain someday. Frank and Lucile.

rman476; Your thoughts are much apreciated. It's been a bit over a month now and things are getting easier, our loss was an expected part of life, but you're still never ready. We were able to handle our loss in a planned peacefull manner unlike the victims and familys of the terrible disaster in the tidal wave, that would be more overwhelming than I can even imagine. Thanks again. Frank and Lucile.
