So sorry to hear about your father's passing. My dad thought a lot of your dad, respected & trusted him. I will never forget the summer my family was on vacation & saw your family at Yellowstone National Park. My dad had just mailed a gun to your dad a few days earlier because the border guards wouldn't let us cross into Canada with it. We thought it was ironic that we saw y'all there!
