hey my friend, awesome post about your dad. I lost mine in 2008, he was 54 and I was just starting my professional journey, I really wish he was here right now to see his grandson and feel him. It makes a bit sad to think about how it would be to have my father alive, but at the same time, it makes very very happy to read you, because you are friend and I am so happy you get the opportunity to enjoy your dad as much as you can in this life!
Big hugs to you bro, we hope to see you again some time in the future!
