My 93 year old father Bob passed away early this morning. My wife and I were at the Dallas show when I got the call. A WWII veteran who always worked hard and fought hard until then end. He was always supportive of me playing music and helped me buy instruments with money my parents didn’t really have when I was learning to play over 40 years ago. Thank you for being there, Love and miss you Dad.

Jeff I'm sorry to hear of your loss.
Your Daddy sounds like a man I would love to have met.
I trust he knew the Lord, and is with him now.
My condolences to you and the family Jeff. May God comfort and bless you all.

Jeff, my deepest condolences on the loss of your father. It's a tough time, I know because I just lost my dad last week at 92. May peace and comfort be with you.

He sounds like a wonderful man and a great father. I’m sure you made him proud. So sorry for your loss. WWII vets are a special breed. May he Rest In Peace.

Those WWII vets were a lesson in determination and an example for all to follow and admire. He sounds like the kind of guy who carried his heroism past the war. Godspeed to your Dad.
