A few weeks ago my father, (The greatest man that ever lived and my best friend) came up to visit me from Texas where he was enjoying his retirement. He was an officer in the Navy for most of his life, he worked at PARC on the first computer systems and worked for Scientific Data Systems now known as Xerox for 27 years. He could do anything and everything. I just got a phone call from my step mom that he passed away this morning. I wont be around for awhile, I am heading down to Texas to say my last goodbyes to my best friend.

I am so sorry, Scott.

I am glad to know that you were close with him, sounds like he had a big influence on you, as an example.. for sure.

Hard to lose a family member, and hard to lose a friend.

Peace, buddy. Be safe.

My thoughts are with you.

My Dad is also my hero and has some major health problems and I know that day is coming soon, I don't know how I'll make it through it and don't even want to think about it.

Stay strong Scott, we have all read of your recent misfortune and only wish you the best in overcoming these trials- if you need anything, let us know.

Scott,

So sorry to hear the news. As related before, celebrate your dad's life with your family and use the time together to reaffirm your bond with them.

Everyone,

We have no way of really knowing how many "ticks" we have left on our conscious clocks, so treat every day and everyone (or, at least, those who deserve it) as a gift!

Smiles,
SpecialK
What a year it's been for you, and some of the members of the club. Be strong Scott, we're all thinking of you and your family.

Scott; I'm sorry for your loss. Only time will heal the pain you're feeling. I have lots of my dads things around, tools, jewelry, TV. Not a day goes by I don't think of him. I kind of feel his spirit is in my garage when I use his tools. Makes it a little easier.
Scott Carlberg
Scott,
I'm very sorry to hear about your dad's passing.
May he rest in peace.
SLITS
My best to you and yours Scott. I wasn't around when my Dad went and got a phone call too. One of two worst days in my life.
Qarl
Skline...

I am VERY sorry for your loss. I am lucky to have both my parents alive. My father turns 60 next week, and I realize that my grandfather (his father) was only 59 when he passed away (from cancer).

I am grateful for the time we DO spend together.

Remember the good times with your father (sounds like they mostly were good times).

Thinking of you.

I am deeply sorry to hear about your loss. You were the first member of the club that I met at Alan's light off party. On our way home that night my wife and I discussed how friendly you were and such a great host. Your Father must have been a wonderful man as well. It's true, that the apple does not fall too far from the tree.

God Bless you and your family.
