I lost my dad/best friend last night.

sorry to hear man. you are gonna miss your pops no doubt about that.
i'm sure he wants you to be strong enough to continue for him, continue where he left off.... :D i'm glad you were close and made those memories in '13 on that trip to skagway

and about taking a moment ... yeah that goes for everyone else too friends / family etc because you never know when you might lose someone.

you are in our prayers bro
