Sorry to hear of your loss. My Dad passed away in 92, and there is not a day that goes by that he is not thought of. My dad started farming with horses at a young age, around 12 when his dad just up and left the family. My dad kept the farm going, along with his two younger brothers, and mother. He eventauly got his own farm, and was still operating tractors into his early 80's. I sometimes go to the shop, and just look around at the things he has hung up on the wall. A new set of bean cutting knives that will never be used setting in a corner. Some of his horse harneses he stopped using in the 30's. I am 61 now, and still miss dad, but still have the memories . You will have some hard times in the months to come, but as time goes by it will be easier to cope with your loss. Your Dad may be gone, but you also still have a lot of good memories. May God be with you and your family. Stan
