My father Joe passed away this morning. He was 99 and still living and driving on his own. Last Tuesday his hip broke when he stood up and he was hospitalized for that.

We shared the same interests and views. We were best friends. He was an amazing man and a wonderful father.

Due to the blizzard I was not able to get to Hazen until Saturday but we did get to spend Saturday and Sunday together. Anyone that knew him was aware he was not fond of cold weather so memorials and internment will be at the end of May.

Sorry for your loss. I lost my Dad in 91 and still think of him every day. Still use all his reloading equipment along with mine.

I don't envy you my friend, I hope that you find peace and solace in your Lord and Saviour.
Your father obviously instilled in you a sense of family - cling to that in the coming days.
Prayers offered to you and your family.

I know your sorrow. I lost my Dad eight years ago when he was 90. He started me on a life long journey of hunting, fishing, and enjoying all the good things God has given us….just to enjoy. My condolences. The memories will be with you forever.

So very sorry to read about the loss of your Father. I've been there myself, having lost mine in 1995 at the age of 81. Eventually the pain of the loss will diminish, but the memories never will. Best wishes.

So sorry for your loss. You were blessed to have him to that advanced age.

We lost both my father and father-in-law in 1982. Father-in-law was only 65. My father was 75. Hard work wore a lot of men out early and inherited genes took care of the rest.

It's been almost 4 years since I lost mine . Family history said I should have had him another 10 years now it says I've got 15 if I really take care of myself .

My thoughts are with you .

Sorry for your loss.

I lost my step dad and father in law in 93. These two men meant a great deal to me; I still think of and miss them.

Praying for peace, comfort and hope for the whole family.

When I was in high school, and pondering what to do with my life my dad, who was in his fifties, told me that there were still times that he wished he could talk to his father about things.
