MY FATHER STANDS OUT AS A GREAT FATHER TO ME. HE NEVER CONFRONTED ME WITH ANY ISSUES THAT HE THOUGHT MAY BE MISUNDERSTOOD. HE HAD A LIFE AND HISTORY OF HIS OWN AND NEVER SHARED THINGS FROM IT IF HE THOUGHT IT WOULD UNDERMIND YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH OUR FAMILY. HE WAS A VERY ACTIVE PERSON THAT HAD AN UNCANNY INSIGHT INTO OTHERS LIVES AND HOW THEY UNDERSTOOD THINGS. IT'S ALMOST AS IF HE KNEW WHAT WOULD HAPPEN NEXT. OF COURSE THERE IS ALWAYS ONE FAMILY MEMBER THAT WAS MUCH LIKE HIM WITH TERRIFIC INSIGHT INTO PEOPLE AND SITUATIONS, MY BROTHER ANDREW, ACTUALLY MY NEPHEW BUT RAISED BY MY MOM AND DAD. HE HAD A VERY DIFFICULT UPBRINGING THAT HE NEVER DEALT WITH WELL BUT THAT IS LIFE. ALL IN ALL I MISS HIM DEARLY AND THINK OF HIM OFTEN. DAD I HOPE TO SEE YOU ON THE OTHER SIDE, LOVE BOBBY - Posted by: BOBBY PRINGLE (SON) on: May 16, 2012
