Re: RIP dad
Dad is having a secular service on 29th - may be absent from the site or only sporadic for a while.
Daughter lit a candle at the school chapel - her way of coping, even though daddy was an athiest who would have liked to be put up a tree for the birds to eat, like the red indians do. Not sure what will happen to his ashes - he loved the sun and the sea, so sister may scatter them, or plant a tree.

Re: RIP dad
Took me a while to respond to this as I honestly haven't wanted to face thinking about these things. Especially with Parents. I dont know what to say, Except I'm thinking about you.
Got to say your Dad sounds a lot like mine. Atheist.. Pinching the food... Cheeky etc etc. So I'm feeling a lot of empathy.
Hang on tight to the good memories.

Re: RIP dad
Thanks everyone- tickets all booked, though we are coming home a day early to avoid another $640 per person being whacked on top of the $1900 per person that they charged us.
