sadly there have been a few screwballs on this site .. accusing me of lieing about the pasing if my father to get points.. a very good friend of mine Angel//prince of darkness made a few very kind bulliotns for me that showed support and love for me and my family during our loss. The response i recieved has been very ovewhelming and for th most part.. exteremely positive... I want to thank each and everyone of those who sent their sympathies. I have decided to share the obituary with those that may be interested in seeing.. and to kind of justify myslef to those evil and crass folks that have accused me of a fabrication of my father's death as a points game. I know these people are sick,.. and I should just ignore it.. but this is my way of dealng the pain they have caused me .
