greetings everyone, i know I have not posted an announcemnt in a hell of a long time, and i had my reasons. but times have changed for the moment. So, i wish to state it simply.

my dad died. he was 68. i am 26.

I wish for this moment to be used as he would have wanted it, as a learning experience. please cherish and love every moment of your time with your family, espeically your parents and siblings. it can end at any moment, like it did with dad. he was felled by a heart attack, and taken too soon. i was in the shower when it happened, and my brother did cpr. it failed.

like i said, it can happen any time, at any moment. please care for, love, and enjoy your time with family. and do ask any questions you wish to them, and ask for honest replies. i never knew much about dad's childhood, or his past. but what i do know is i loveh im, now and forever.

so, tl:dr: my father died, please cherish family, and enjoy life to the fullest
