Earlier this year my dad was diagnosed with mesothelioma.

Yesterday afternoon his suffering ended.

He would have been 82 on July 11.

He was a good man, and I miss him.

He was diagnosed about the same time that my wife was starting chemo, so I'm glad I got a chance to visit him a couple times before it was too late.

"He was a good man". Don't we all hope that will be said about us.

He will always be with you in some form Ray.

Bless you and yours,
