So sorry to hear of your Dad's passing. He was a friend of my father, Don Ralph, who died 3 years ago at the age of 91. Dad bought his first computer at the age of 81 so he could talk to your Dad with the ham radio. Dad and your Dad loved the ham radio and spent a lot of time on the air. Even in Canada at 5:00 AM he would get on to hear the news waking us up. Lots of memories. I now work for Mark Petersen at RE/MAX Brokers Plus as the Office Administrator. He said he was listing your Dad's house. I wish you all the best. Sorry again.
