what was his cycle, bro?

seriously tho, my sincere condolences.

my pops died a couple of years ago at age 83, and still miss the hell out of him, but I tell myself that if you make it to 80 you've lived a full life, and every year after that is a "bonus." so you were fortunate to have your dad for a dozen extra bonus years.

I wasn't going to post this. But I do have a few friends on here. My dad died at age 92, one week after we had got here (relocated to be near family, for grad school). He will be missed. In the house, guess we don't need to go apartment hunting as I am the sole survivor (mom and brother passed in 2003 and 2000 respectively. RIP Dad. You are missed.

sorry to hear it man, mine went in 2012 @ age 85 smoked and drank most of his life. guess he kinda beat the odds.

It is great that your dad lived to such a fine old age. He must have been quite a fellow! Sorry for your loss.

Respect to your dad for making it all those years, must have lived through and seen a lot of crazy shit. RIP

92 is a good old age to live to, but I bet it still feels way too soon.

Commiserations and I raise my beer to him.

My condolences. Very few people are blessed to see 92.

Viking11 · « **Reply #41 on:** March 07, 2014, 05:11:37 PM »

Thanks all. He did live his life the way he wanted. Survived the Great Depression, was on WW2 - working n the the top secret radar, was a dance instructor with my mom at the Aragon Ballroom in Chicago, worked 22 years at the Jet Propulsion Lab in Pasadena. All very cool stuff. I wish I could tell him that now.
Not selling the house, paid for in Orange County, Calif - less than 10 miles from the school I am going to go got my doctorate, I'd be insane to think about it. He was very conservative- and it worked for him, grew up poor, died probably a miillionaire. Well done Dad. (I wish I did things half as well.)

You have my condolences. It is my hope and prayer that you will meet again, at the end of all things. All the best to you.
