My dad has passed.

Post by Dean Holman »

My dad passed away this morning. I got to be with him when he left this world to go to his eternal home. I wouldn't be where I'm at today if it wasn't for him. He was my hero.

You have my deepest sympathy and thoughts Dean. I remember meeting your Dad when I met you while I was playing for the Whites so many years ago. Your dad was such a kind gentleman and I know he was so proud of you. May God Bless and comfort your family my friend.

I wanted to extend my condolences to you in the loss of your Dad. I lost my Dad in 1997, so I can only imagine what your feeling. Always remember that he is in a better place and that one day you will see him again.

Dean please accept my condolences in the loss of your Father.
I never got to meet your Father and after the Sheriff logo and learning some about him, I certainly wish I'd had the opportunity to meet him.
I know that you are super proud of your Father as you should be, and my prayer is for the Lord to comfort you and your family in his passing. May God richly bless you all.

Dean, so sorry to hear this. It's tough to let them go. Both of my parents are gone. They're in a much better place than we are though, brother.
