Thank you again to all my friends for your prayers and kind words. It truly was a blessing and meant a lot to me.  I am doing as well as can be expected. I don't know if I'm in denial or something, it doesn't seem like it has hit me yet.

The services were very nice. My son gave the eulogy and my nephew played a song on the ukulele. It was just as my dad would have wanted it. My mom didn't even want any of us to dress up. My dad was a very casual person so my mom had all of the us wear casual clothes. My brothers were in shorts and tshirts and the girls were in tshirts and jeans.  There were a few tears but mostly laughter and smiles in celebration of my dad. The Pastor said after the service that he could see the love and closeness of my entire family and that he could see that we were a happy family.
