My Dad would have been 96 today.  He die in '89 and I still miss him.  He wasn't a drinker, but I'll buy for the house in his memory.

Happy birthday, Dad.
People like me are the reason people like you have the right to bitch about people like me.

I think Dad would have loved CAS.  He taught me about two things when I was about 15:

1. How to shoot a SAA.

2. Not to underestimate an old timer with a sixgun.

Someday I'll get his autobiography out and see about getting it published.  It's an AMAZING story, truly is!!!

I know what you meen, FR. My Dad died in 1987 and my Mother in 2000. It's still a empty place in my life.  See you around, Pard and greetings for your lovely Wife from us. Joe and Els.

Lost my Mom in Oct '76 & my next younger brother 2 weeks later. :'(  Other brother died in 2000.  :'(
Dad's still shootin' up a storm at 73 years.  He's got a great attitude & pretty good health. 
;D ;D He also now owns the right guns to start shootin' some CAS.  Reckon he's gonna get with the Duelist thing here soon.

I'll join ya in that toast Forty Rod.  Lost mine too in '87.  He went way too young.  If I can live to be 1/2 the man he was I will be somebody.  To memories...

Uncle Eph

my Dad would have been 100 this year, we lost him in 2000 and Mom 6 months later; I guess 74 years with the Ol' Man was just not enough for her.
