My most sincere condolences to you and your family Mark. Thank goodness your dad didn't end up suffering in some institution for years like so many do these days.
I grieve with you, my friend. You have my number. May your father's memory bless you always.

PS (a bit of pastoral counsel): Do not withdraw. Rather, keep at least one finger on your keyboard. You have many friends here. I am proud to be numbered among them.
I've only known you, Mark, through your generous and unselfish help here on AK. Your dad must have been very special to have a son like you. My sincerest condolences on his passing.
My condolences for your loss. Knowing your generosity, patience, humor, and talent from your posts on AudioKarma, you can take comfort in knowing that you were a good son and brought much happiness to your father.
Heart felt condolences to you in this time of numbing sorrow.
Lost my Father some odd thirty years ago and still to this day think of him. Was with my Mother when she left us at 85. I try and hear the voices of all those who are gone in my head once a day so to not forget.
Time is the only thing to dull the pain from a wound that never really heals.
