My father dies, Feb 2008



My father, with whom I went on family tree research trips for 25 years, died of a sudden and unexpected illness on 27 Feb 2008. His family is heartbroken. He was a great father. I was very close to him.

Contact me if you need the address of my mother to send condolences. Or send condolences through me. Good bye, Dad.
