I saw his boat in the other thread and that thing is amazing. Anyone who works with that is due all the respect I can offer. Hope he gets better and gets back on the water :pray:

Rob, I'm wishing him a speedy recovery and minimal long-term affects.I had a mini-stroke on Easter morning, so I know, first-hand, the fear. I'm still dealing with stuff from that, as well as a pending surgery for an aneurysm in my left carotid artery.I wish your father well.Rick

dad says thanx to you guys for the well wish,s said he will thank you all in pm,s when he gets feeling a bit better jr

Is he getting better? Sounds like hes an old school harda$$ so I'm sure he won't let the stroke take advantage of him without a fight.

Sorry to hear about your Dad. Hoping for a speady recovery and will definitely keep him and the rest of the family in my thoughts and prayes!

    Take advantage of the time bob. Especially while you can. What I mean is, that I should've taken more time with my pops, but now I can't. Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 2

    Remember to slow down a little Bob. Remember prayers travel at the speed of light so they always win the race.

    I am so glad to hear that news about your dad. Will continue to keep him and your family in our thoughts and prayers. Sorry about the races this year.

    Couldn't agree more Rogan!! I still have my dad, but for me, the lesson is the same. I need a balance with my fun time lol but nothing is more important to me (not even my business and money) than spending as much time as possible with my son, as my dad did with me. Our time was priceless and the one thing I cherish most from my childhood. I want that same relationship with my son. With the Boston bombing and the father that lost his child, the school shooting in Newtown and the kids in OK school, its really been on my mind lately. I was going to bring him in to see the marathon, but we never made it. Scary. Never know what tomorrow brings and I can't get time back so I'm trying to take advantage of the chances I get.
