Sorry to hear this sad news, Dan, but how great to share a hobby with your Dad for all of those years.

WOW!

I can't thank all of you enough for all of the very dear and kind words.

Pops was very special to everyone, I have never heard a single bad word spoken about him. I was so very lucky to be so close to him and have him living with us the last 7 years.

Just reading this thread helps more than all of you can imagine, I am touched by the members here and Leon for being so kind to post this for me.

W/O Pops, I am in pieces.

Hey Dan
Our hearts go out to you and your family. You know you are one of the luckiest guys in the world to have had a Dad that was so great for so long. When your Dad left us the world was a bit dimmer place. I can't thank you enough for bringing him by my table at the National a couple years ago so I could speak with him for several minutes. What a great, great man he was. I am so glad I had the several conversations with him over the years. They just don't make them like that anymore. He reminded me so much of my grandfather in the high morals and integrity dept. RIP Pops.

I actually got to meet Dan Sr. briefly at the National Convention in Baltimore. The fellow really looked in his element. My best to the who McKee Family during this difficult time.

Dan--

I lost my dad in 1979. I was inconsolable as he was a better man than I could ever hope to be.

But, time is a healer. I think of him often now but the painful grief of his passing has long since subsided.

Hang in there and feel free to lean on your many friends in the hobby.
