My father class of '82 passed away Monday

He had just come down from Colorado from seeing my sister whose baby had come 3 months early. I was supposed to see him Monday morning and we were going to game on Saturday.

I'm still in a bit of shock and I apologize if I'm a little more testy than usual in the next few weeks. Currently I'm dealing with the fact that I could have gone to see him at the hotel Sunday night but didn't b/c we decided that it was late enough to wait until the morning. It was only 8pm which now just makes me feel horrible that I was too lazy to go over.

He loved Texas A&M with all his heart and was constantly giving scholarship money and football tickets to kids in the Dept of RPTS.

Usually I'm a tad bit Hank Hill like when it comes to showing emotions with friends and family but if you are like me just remember to tell your loved ones a little more often b/c you never know when they will be called away from us.
