I'm really sorry to hear that, Jim. I lost my Dad to cancer 6 years ago. Hang in there, it gets better. If need be, I'll handle the swap.

Ugh, that is awful news. I also lost my dad to cancer 3 years ago this May. It sucks, but it does get better. Eventually you get to a point where you can remember him without crying. Some days I think I'm there, other days I'm not.

I'll take up organizing the swap. It's the least I can do.

Really sorry to hear this. It does get better, even if that seems impossible right now. Hang in there.

Lost my Dad to leukemia today. If the chaos settles down in time, I'll try to organize the swap. Otherwise, if someone wants to step up and run it that would be great

So sorry for your loss, Jim.
Sorry, Jim.  I lost my Dad 25 years ago and sometimes still miss him.

Forget about the swap, unless it gives you something to focus on.

Sorry to hear of your loss.

Thanks again everyone. He was 92, so it's different than losing a dad who was still young. But I still have family stuff to deal with and get through relatively unscathed. I appreciate the support. No doubt the swap will go smooth with Amanda at the tiller.

So sorry to hear about your Dad, Jim. I hope to make it to 92 one day as well.  I hope things go smoothly for you in the next few weeks...
