I felt I needed to share some sad news with the forum regarding my father. Quite a few members got to meet him in Virginia at Jared & Heather’s home when they were still stationed there. They threw a wonderful welcome home party for my daughter who had just returned home from a tour in Kandahar, Afghanistan. (On a side note, the little electric Slingshot the forum bought for her daughter Bella is still in use to this day - she’s now a complete pro at driving it. She has a spare battery for longer drive time. My other daughter now has a daughter too & she will get to use it also, in time. Again, a heartfelt thanks to all who contributed...)

I digress. Those who met my Dad at the party know that his eyesight was horrific but was in good health otherwise. He loved meeting everyone & talked about that day often. Since that time, he went almost totally blind & his health kept deteriorating. Heart, lungs, kidneys, battling water retention etc. Dad passed away Sunday evening after being in the hospital for 6 days (his second long hospital stay this year). He had turned 89 in February. It wasn’t coronavirus that took him, it was a plethora of other issues - it was his time.

Rest in peace Dad - you’re with Mom now. I love you...

Sorry for your loss Larry. As others have stated, he is in a better place, thanks to God. 🙏

On a different note, good to have you back on the forum, posting. 👍🏼

Larry so sorry to hear that. He was a gentleman and a funny man I still remember.

Larry

So sorry to hear about your Father. I will always remember him and the way he introduced himself to me asking me if I had his CARD. I still have HIS CARD in my wallet. Your Dad was a great man and he will me missed . My thoughts and Prayers are with you and your family.

RIP Mr. Royalty

Tripodprayers to the family.

Larry,

I am so sorry for your loss. I can still remember meeting you and your Father for the first time at Jared's house. What a hoot!!! The moment I met your Father, I knew he was special person. I, too, was a recipient of "His Card", and will cherish it forever.

May you find comfort in knowing he is at peace and in good company now. My Father passed in 2015 and my Mother in 2019. I giggled just a little bit, thinking that they may run into each other. Now, wouldn't that be nice!

We are here for you Brother. Let us know if you need anything from us.
