It is with a heavy heart that I am breaking into my dad's blog today. After a brief fight with lung cancer, my dad has lost. He loved this blog, and sharing his thoughts and feelings with his friends in the virtual world.

Prayers for your family. Your Dad brought me so many smiles.
Sorry to hear he went to the big blogger con in the sky. Or wherever heaven is.
We were afraid it was something like that. He has brought smiles to many people, and a few tears now too...
Condolences to you and your family.

I am so sorry for your loss, and thank you for letting us know. This blog has been a favorite for me for a long time. He will be missed here as I am sure he will be in life.
My sincere condolences on the loss of your father. I enjoyed his blog very much. I can empathize with you as I lost my wife to cancer. It is a terrible and ugly disease. My father was a Vietnam vet and I lost him to cancer as well.
My best wishes to you and your family.
My condolences as well..
Yer Dad did great work.
You should be proud.
Be at peace, he is in a better place.
Darn! I enjoyed The Old Man and enjoyed trading memes and stealing from each other. He will be missed and my condolences and share your sadness. I too thought something was up like this since he missed a few days of posting.

Oh my stars, I am so sorry to hear this!

Condolences to all
Godspeed to your Dad, he was a soul full of light in a time of darkness!
An ode to passing and to new life from an old tune recorded way back when I was a young man follows below:
“And on the day I said good bye
My, my drowning tear catches the light
Like the gift of sight
The baby's eyes
Darkness into light
I can rest my soul in the light
I'm positively, Spring time
The gift of sight
The baby's eyes
Darkness to light
The gift of life
The baby's eyes
Darkness to light
The gift of life
The baby's eyes
Baby’s eyes

I started every day with his blog and was concerned when so many days went by without a post. There are plenty of similar blogs, but I especially liked his take on things.
Condolences to his loved ones.
So sorry for your loss.

May your father rest in peace eternal with Jesus. Prayers that Gods hand comforts you and your family in this trying time.
My condolences on your families loss. May he join up with brothers in arms and have a cold one. His blog and memes will be missed because they told a story that the media would not tell but with humor.

I too have enjoyed your dad’s perspective on life. It’s ok to grieve but make it short. You know he would not want you to live in the shadow of his passing for long.
Rest in Peace Brother.
Sigh...Another good man down. Condolences on your loss. He will most certainly be missed.
RIP, "Dad".

Fellow VN Veteran.
Fellow motorcycle rider.
Fellow Constitution lover.
We met and spent the day together at the Air Force Museum pre-Covid. I thoroughly enjoyed his company.
And all our lives are diminished by his loss.
Thank you E for sending me the text.
I have been checking the block every day, as was my custom. When I saw that the memes were not changing, I just assumed that a vacation explained it. Finally, today, I read the announcement. I was, of course, saddened to read the news.
My condolences to the entire family. I wish him fair winds and following seas.
I just now saw this post. I am sorry to hear of his passing. May he rest in peace and may your family take some comfort in knowing he shared a little part of the world with a wide range of people here in America.
I am sorry for your loss !!! I loved his posts ( memes ) ... He will be missed by family - friends and his followers !!! My condolences !!!

SO sorry to hear of your loss. Didnt get the time to come here daily but looked forward to the times I did visit. Loved his sense of humor and common sense shown by his choice of what he posted. Has anyone found another site like this for the same type comment?
I'm very sorry for your loss. Like many commenters above, I really enjoyed your father's blog and came here often for a word of wisdom or a funny meme. He brightened the lives of thousands of people with it and will be missed.
Damn. He and his work will be missed
