Scott and family, I am so sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this sad time. Scott you said that your dad was a great storyteller, I am sure he would like you to keep his stories going. You have that same gift. I know it is really hard right now, but be strong, that is what he would have wanted. Again, if there is anything I can help with, just let me know, even just to talk. Sincerely, Lori
