Gnight, Dad.

[reynardo]

Yesterday morning, my father George Richards died about 5 years after his massive stroke. We are sad, but not sorry.

There's an article about him on the Sydney Morning Herald site. (I may have annoyed the journalist a little - it's taken three edits for me to appear in as more than an afterthought :-) )

Hug your loved ones, tell them how much they mean to you, and as my mother is currently taking out her frustrations on me in games of Settlers, for that you may send me some sympathy.

*Hugs*, which you are welcome to interpret as relating to Settlers! Thank you for the SMH link -- an interesting read even though I never knew him.

Thank you, lovely.

*enormous hugs* Deep condolences to you and your family, and wishing you the comfort of happy memories. What an amazing life your dad lived!

Bonus sympathy for the cut-throat board games. *more hugs*

[reynardo]

Thank you. (The extra sympathy was definitely needed - I got TROUNCED!)

As commented elsewhere, so sorry for your loss.

*virtual hug* from the other side of the world.

Thank you, hon.

It's a relief when suffering ends. Like my wife's dad, who passed from cancer about a week and a half after we married, was eerily echoed by my dad who passed about two weeks after my middle niece married, also from cancer.

My condolences.

[reynardo]

Crumbs, yes. Such a huge relief. Thank you.
