    Hang tough Brother, our thoughts are with you and your family. I lost my dad when he was only 50 years old, but he is always there with me on those really tough jobs, along with my uncles and grandfather, when I'm turning the wrenches.

    My Friend

    I have been away with my family and just saw this post. My thoughts are with you and your family. If I was closer I would personnaly show my respect.

    As you know I lost my Dad over 25 years ago and yet it seems like yesterday. So strong is the bond between a father and son. I know your memorys will be just as strong.

    Your boys are who they are thanks to your Dad who taught you.

    That's really fragrant. A very good man, who lived a very long life, passes to a very good place. Everyone should rejoice, for that's what life's all about.

    Tribute

    That alone has to be the best written tribute to a father ever to pass before my eyes.

    Dave, I know you as a gentleman in every sense of the word and in that, you carry on that tribute every day by being you. Your father had much to be proud of.

    To you, Lois and your extended and extensive family, I wish you peace and comfort in this time of such deep sorrow. A long life, so well lived and so well loved, had he. Rest in Peace, John C. Yates.
