I too lost my Dad & Mom. I still miss them and it has been 14 years now. My thoughts & prayers are with you & your family. Sounds like you had a wonderful Dad. God Bless

Sam, again I am so very sorry of the loss of your dad.

We moved to Winter Park, Fl 25 years ago. I was born and raised in Washington, D.C. and of course the family all worked for the Federal Government.
I lived also in Bethesda and Potomac, Maryland. I understand you lived there also. You are so darling..you take care it is a process you have to go through....God Bless you and your family. Again,

This is an apology for any nut who posts something nasty.

I am a big fan of yours Sam. I am 61 but look and act like 50. I am married with 2 grown children and 4 grandsons. We all are very close. My husband and I own a business.

Sorry to hear the passing of your wonderful father. My father passed away when I was 16 and my mother when I was 34 in my house in front of my 2 small children. What a sight and I am still seeing everything in my mine. You will never forget your father and the memories. God Bless you and your family. You are so great. I love you.. I believe you lived in Potomac, Md. area at one time in high shcool. A friend of mine daugther went to school with you. Again, sorry to hear of the sad news.
