He died Christmas day in 2006


Lost my dad Christmas morning as well. Pancreatic cancer is a bitch. It was his favorite holiday so at least he got to spend Christmas with Jesus. My biggest regret is that he never got to meet my child(ren). He loved his grandkids. We had a few hunting and fishing trips but we came from limited means so chances were hard to come by. Still, I wouldn't give those days up for the priciest hunting trip out there.

That’s rough.

My dad actually passed the morning after Christmas. Had an awesome Christmas Day and night. We all went home around 10:30 pm and the plan was for my dad and 2 brothers to meet at my younger brothers house at 5:00am December 26.

After showing up at my brothers house we tried calling dad at 5:05 because he was never late for anything. No answer.

I immediately got knots in my stomach as well as my older brother. I could tell when I looked at him. So I jump in my truck and my other 2 brothers drove together to dads. No answer after knocking. Unlocked door and found him in the position he usually slept. I shook him for a second to wake up then I noticed he wasn’t breathing and his body was cold. Everything after that was a blur.
