...And it was a blessing.

He suffered tremendously with Joint, bone and other pains, along with an inability to oxygenate his blood, holes in his heart, and extremely low blood pressure.

My dad never saw me drive on a road course, but was the reason I got into cars. He never understood what I did for a living. All he knew was that I was his "baby". We didn't see eye to eye on much. But his work ethic, his morals and his desire to teach people will forever live in me, and through me. If you have ever read anything I'd DIY'ed or helped explain, it was because of him.

He was a great man, my hero and he will be missed.

Sorry to hear, he is in a better place. RIP!

 

RIP, you and your family will be in my prayers, Mike.

 

Sorry to hear, Mike. Best wishes to you and your family.

 

Sounded like he lived a full life; what else can a man ask for!

 

Sad times, I will vouch for that. Makes one remember to live now!!

On that note: Mike I picked up the car today and clutch now feels absolutely totally great.

 

Very sorry to hear. Hoping the best for you in these difficult times.

 

Best wishes to you Mike, and thanks for always taking so much time to educate your friends on the forum!

 

Best to you and your family. It is a difficult time when your father passes. It has been almost two years for me and not a day goes by without remembering him.

Oh, Mike. I am so sorry. My dad was not a great man, or a great husband to my mom, but he was a great father. I (think) I know how you feel. All for the best, now.
