I just got off my flight from funeral services for my dad. The cancer finally took him 2 weeks ago. It was rough at the end But he spent the rest of the time with us like he wanted. Before he died, He had mentioned about how great the forums on here were for him during his last bits of time.
So I think I can speak for him in saying thank you to everyone who offered him the time, even for simple conversation. He taught me a lot about How to live and let me say... He'll be missed a ton in the family. So from my fathers mouth to us, I'd like to share his final words of insight that he gave us in his will; and seeing how supportive you all were.. I know he would approve too.
"Well kids, It seems that the time for me has come. It was a tough run but you all stood strong like I knew you would. Of all the things I can tell you, Only one really matters: Love. Love with all your heart. Hate and bitterness never have given anyone true happiness. And so I say to you, forgive. No matter what happens, your family will always be there above all else. I want you all to know I love you so much. No matter what you do in life, know that you will always have the rest of the clan to give you the boost. Never be afraid of tomorrow. Never worry about yesterday. And live your life to the fullest today."
Thank you all for being there for my dad. I know it meant a lot to him.

We all appreciate the support. He will be missed.
--------------------
Dad died in November as his diagnosis predicted, but he stayed strong for us til the very end. As he would want, I will be posting some of his writings as I go through them, hopefully giving more of his insight that saved our family, and hopefully will help you all too.

sertoviska,
It sounds like your dad was a great man. That quote you provided from him is fantastic and I will remember it for the rest of my life.

Sorry for your loss Much love
-------------------- Cherish yesterday, Dream tomorrow, Live today So if you now number yourself among the disenchanted, then you have no choice but to accept things as they are, or to seriously seek something else. But beware of looking for goals: look for a way of life. Decide how you want to live and then see what you can do to make a living WITHIN that way of life. - Hunter S. Thompson

This is his username, actually. He left me his computer with all of his writings on it. In the next bit I will post some of the non-family ones for you all to read, if you're up for some heavy reading and philosophies.
