my wife’s grandfather passed away last night.... WWII vet, served in the Navy in the pacific. Raised 2 children of his own and sent a foster child through Tulane medical school.... a great supporter of St Judes even in his passing as a portion of his estate will go there to continue supporting them.

He practically raised mrs kcal as her dad was an otr truck driver and often away.

He was our moral compass and one of the best men I’ve known

I will miss him

I feel your pain. My dad was a member of the 'Greatest Generation too and a WWII veteran. He left us on Father's Day in 2000.

sorry for your loss. my dad is 86 now and because of this damn virus i havnt been able to go from California to see him in his assisted living in Dallas. They are in lockdown an no visitors. I hope i can see him soon if things get better. I talk on phone to him but it isnt the same.

Hope you got to spend some time with your dad.
