Very touching to say the least. This is one of the reasons why we should treasure every day we have with friends and family.
Being the age I am, it becomes even more important. I am 62 and looking towards the future and what ever life I have left on this planet. I have a wonderful and loving Wife. Two wonderful Children, a terrific career, which for the most part is now behind me, and some very special friends. I count my blessings every day. God has been so gracious and kind to me, it is just unbelievable. My Deepest Sympathies on your loss! These memories will be with you always!

Wonderful story. The value of your car has gone up astronomically, I'd say.
 You are a good son for giving him a chance to drive your new Camaro. I just know he'll be in your passenger seat, along for the ride, with a big grin on his face. Especially when all the traffic lights seem to be in your favor

I can honestly say you got some closure with your father, and im very sorry to hear for your loss.. To make my story short.. i preordered my camaro back in 2009, and was having mine built, due to GM bankrupsy my camaro was put on hold for 2 weeks during delivery..
i get the call that the car is in, me and my dad take off a half a day of work to sign paperwork at the bank etc.. i go to the bank and go get my mom to go pick up my father to go to pick him up and head to the dealership, sadly my father passed away that day due to a heart attack, he was out camping waiting for me. Me and him was rebuilding a 1970 camaro same color combo etc.. Just be glad you had that moment. i really wish i did. |
