    I can't post the word after "Oh, ____" that I spoke after reading that. I can say that my heart goes out to you and your family, Steve. Just typing this brings tears to my eyes.

    I know you were about to go visit him again, but don't let the timing mess with you. Carry on, stay strong when you can, and let it all out when you can't.

    Also, thank you for sharing your Dad's life with us. I would have loved to have met him.

    Doug

    No matter what, it's never easy. I remember in the dark days before my dad passed a few years back, there were times when I was sure he was ready, and so were we. But we weren't really. Friends, family and music helped get me through. Sounds like you have all that and more. Our thoughts and prayers are with you, Steve.
