My sincerest sympathy Jeff, to you and your family. The loss of a parent is diffucult, especially when we are not expecting it with someone so young. Your dad sounds like a very interesting guy....he sure raised some great kids.
Your friends are thinking about you....and happy to support you any way we can.
