Condolences 🙏 miss my dad also, about the same age. Met some Canadians around 83, just like my dad. It was nice meeting them, and reminded me of my dad. They were special. The Canadians winter here in costa rica. They have been married 60 yrs. The husband did not come this year with health issues. They found the wife dead in there condo the other day😢 she went without anyone even knowing. I know she had a full life, as well as your dad. Life goes on! Keep your head up Kevin peace be with you

Very sorry to hear of the loss of your Dad. The Bible tells us that the memory of a good person is a blessing. Thank you for one of my absolute favorite sailing channels.
@ki6hzs7 ай бұрын
I find it interesting that ALL of the other KZbin sailing channels have a propulsion system other than the sails. It’s a major disaster if they lose motor power. It’s SOP for you. You are the only real sailor on KZbin that I’m aware of. No motor, no problem for you. I’ve enjoyed your channel for many years. Appreciate the great content! Sail in my friend, sail on. John

It is a gift of sorts that you were at sea when the good fellow passed. How fortunate to be in an uncorrupted place, left to the weave of wind, water, time, and even music as you pondered the depths of love and memories for a man who was so very much a part of you. It is such a fine thing for those to whom you give so much, to have the opportunity to send condolences and support. I hope that adding my sincere concern to the multitude of others serves to further close the gap among people and help prove John Donne's words that "if a clod breaks off, England is the less." My mother passed two months before your father, while I prepared for whatever Maine was going to deliver for winter. Were I in your position, I would have rung my bell, thinking of John Donne. I don't know that you take requests, but if you do, I would be grateful if you would sound the bell twice; once for your parent, once for mine. And may peace come unto your heart.
