Personally speaking, my father was a great, caring man, who I’ve always looked up to. He had a very sharp mind and a great sense of humor, when he was healthy. And even when he was ill, his sense of humor stayed with him. He was a genuinely warm, likeable man, who put the needs of others even above his own. He will be sadly missed by all who had the privilege of knowing him. There will always be a huge hole in my heart, which he once occupied, for the rest of my life. I love you, Dad. Goodbye until we meet again.
