Thank you. It would honor him and me both if you stay safe and come back to our shores happy and healthy! I showed him your pictures of beautiful Baghdad, and he said, "What the HELL is she doing there?" :-)

But he knew why.

Please accept my sympathy.

May your Dad rest in peace and may his memory live on in the hearts and minds of those who loved him and knew him.

Many thanks for sharing your dad's life story with us. He lived a full, rich and satisfying time on earth, now he's in a far better place.

It hurts, the loss, but time will help heal the pain and let you focus and remember all the good things.

My dad died on Halloween, 1994. It was always one of his favorite days. Where he lived, there were few kids in his building, so he'd always come up to our house for the day, buy all the candy, wear a fright wig, and have fun with the loads of neighborhood kids who came to our door every year. It was he about 5 years after his death before I could enjoy the holiday again..

In his memory, before you turn the ashes over to the Navy, I'd put the top down on the red convertible, put your dad's urn in the other bucket seat, and give him a last tour of the countryside.

Bless him, and those heros who've flown west.

May he rest in peace.

So sorry to here this, JC.

But I think you're right; he just let go. I watched this with my mother less than two months ago.

My heart is with you.

Jenny, I am so sorry to hear of the passing of your beloved dad. He sounded like a wonderful, remarkable man whose memory & antics you can treasure.

Such a gift he has left you!

Thanks for sharing this thread dedicated to him & I wish we could all give you REAL hugs rather than the cyber hugs that are plentiful.
