William, my deepest sympathy to you and your family. I offer comfort in the form of memories. It helped my family and I. Always remember the good times and difficult ones too. They are what made each of you who you are today. So realize your dad did a good job and had an impact on everyone he came in contact with. Let me know if I can be of any help. Take care, God Bless and smile when you realize he is watching over all of you and smiling at what he helped create.
