Cancer got my mum. Very brutal but blessedly quick. My Dad had moved out to Oz following that and we were planning his first return visit as a father son biking holiday (he was an original Ace Cafe boy ). The bike he was going to use was this very one I am rebuilding so I would have had to get it done.
He had just bought his tickets good and early when he went out like a light in his sleep
Sorry to hear about your losses, Herb. It sounds like your dad went peacefully and painlessly. Hope your mum didn't suffer too much? We do only ask for our parents to pass away quickly and as painlessly as possible.
