| Message | Hello to all again. As you know by now, Daddy passed away on Sunday, Sept. 20th, after battling cancer. Daddy had an outpouring of people at his viewing, and I am so grateful to everyone for enriching his life with so much love and friendship. It was touching to see just how rich he was. An extended thanks for the beautiful flowers/cards that arrived from his shipmates. What's so ironic, is, that Mr. Dorough & Mr. Sims sent the exact same card! I'm so glad that my sister (Connie) found the Spangler website or I would never have had the chance to start the ball rolling in finding Daddy's friends. After finding Mr. Dorough and putting him in contact w/ Mom & Daddy, he kept the ball rolling! It has been a really hard time for all of us, but just discovering all of these new friends and ties to his past (the website)somehow keeps Daddy just that much closer still. God bless each and every one of you. Daddy always had a place in his heart for you all. Please keep in touch. ~~~Adrienne~~~ |
