Default Sad but better now

My dad, the greatest man i have ever known, passed away last night. He got me started in RC with a Radio Shack/Tandy Formular 1 Racer about 40+ yrs ago. It was red and white. He also had a 2ft long UH-1 Huey that sat on a stand and when you push the buttons, the rotors and lights would operate. He will be missed but the memories my brothers have with him will love forever.

I'm so sorry for your loss Rob. My father passed 3 years ago. I think about him all the time but not with a heavy heart , but with a feeling of pride and happiness in the person he was.
I wish you all the best in this difficult part of life.

Mario

Rob - keep hold of the good memories you have - they are what is important. We hop that the passing was as painless as could be. We are there with you - lean on us, even if you don't think you should.

Warm regards
Your "other family"
