In Memory of my POP's who passed yesterday 03.27.08

@ 08:45 AM (5 months, 2 days ago)

My POP's was a great dad to me, I found that we got along best from a distance.

If I ever needed advice I could always ask him and he was a wealth of information.

I think he was damaged by the war in Vietnam and suffered from PTSD which resulted

in "Problems" with his relationships and he was unable to adjust. He suffered heart disease

that lead to other problems to which he finaly succumbed to the complications. I wished I was more proficient with the use of this computer to somehow convey the pride I feel for his achievements and his dedication to service . Today I have but a short string of his home movies from onboard ship U.S.S. Midway which is now a museum in San Diego Calif. which was our hometown, Home port back then during those years. I post this in his memory and hope the short film is enjoyed by all who may view it. (copyright*2008)

  4. A good tribute to a man who deserves to be honored not only for his service but for the father I'm sure he was to you.

    I know the kind of pride you feel, lost my Pop in 1996; he was an Army man.

    Bravo Zulu! May he rest in peace.

  8. With deepest sympathy. You have a good attitude. You're not simply dwelving on his passing but celebrating his life. That will help.
