I had no idea he was from SLO...which is about 130 miles from me. Or that he was about my age. Thanks for the post, Mike.

Glad you posted this Mike. What's the best way to honor your dad? Is it to keep him in our thoughts and prayers? Donate to a favorite charity of his? Use the "plant a tree" thing on the linked obit? Something else?

I'm planning the tree thing unless I hear of a better option.

You can honor him in anyway you like. He would appreciate anything from the heart.
