[David]

My Father died of lung cancer at 68 years old. I quit smoking a few years ago.
My Father's liver was failing while in the hos. with cancer. I limit my drinking to wine and not very often.
My Father didn't hug his children a lot. I hug my daugther at least once a day and tell her I love her.
My Father loved cadilacs even when there was no money. I have my stuff paid for.
My Father loved the bar room. I don't go into bar rooms.
All that said, I loved him greatly. He was a stuborn man but chilled out a lot, later in his life. We were good friends but I make a point not to be like him.
