Thank you so much for your kind words...I try my best to go on without my parents...it was hard enough to survive losing my Mom 14 yrs ago, but I still had my Dad...when he died last Sept.2008, I could barely breathe, let alone live without him...

But, his last few words to me were: "Be happy, Donna, laughter is the best medicine"...

So that's what I try to do...my Dad was the ultimate joke-teller...he would always have a smile and a joke to share with everyone, even strangers...

I hope I am carrying on his legacy...he was like a "big kid", and when my kids were born, he was the ultimate Grandpa, more excited to do "kid things" with them than I think they were at times..........

He was still body-surfing with them at the beach 3 yrs ago at 80 yrs old and thought he might have cracked a rib...LOL...when a rough wave slammed into him, but would he stop, NOOOOO....

I could go on and on, but again, thank you...I am moved to tears by your kind words and from all the kindness and love I feel from my "forum family" since I signed up...

Being on this forum and driving my Camaro helps to take the "sting" out of my profound grief...:(

I just wish my Dad had lived long enough to see me and my Camaro...he would have LOVED it...

GOD BLESS ALL MY FORUM, GM, AND OSHAWA FRIENDS/"FAMILY"...
