My father passed away last week, one month short of his 83rd birthday. His health had slowly been declining the last year or so. All of my family was able to be by his side when he passed.
My dad was a good man, and besides learning from him to be a hard worker, and to be devoted to my wife and children, I learned to love baseball, and the California Angels.
