Please drink a toast to my dad

[guzziguy]

My father, Lt Col. Kenneth Mueller (I'm actually the II), passed away today at 3:15 PDT. He almost made his 90th birthday, which is May 29. He had a great life, cheated death many times and died quietly at home, as was his wish. He was a veteran of WWII, Korea and Vietnam. I would just like to ask HCers to send some good thoughts his way and for the drinkers to drink something in his honor.

Thanks. See you at CanJam.

Sorry Ken. I am drinking one right now. Godspeed to your Dad.

[guzziguy]

Thanks. I see I forgot to mention what service he was in. It was the USAF.

My sincerest condolences Ken. Sounds like your dad lived a very full and fullfilling life. I know what you are saying regarding cheating death. My father-in-law was in the Army during WWII in the Phillipines and was slated to invade Japan. He always said if that had happened he knew he wouldn't be coming back... it sure gave him a different outlook on the rest of his life.

Sorry for your loss. I am just poured a rum in his honor.

Goodspeed sir!

Nearly 90 years was a good innings. A good life well lived.

Sorry for your loss.

We have a lot in common. My Father started in the Army Air Corp in WWII, and made the military his life. One tour in Korea and two stints in Vietnam being among the first of the "Kennedy Advisor's". He passed three years hence and lived a full and meaningful existence. They are probably swapping stories as I'm typing! CHEERS....

Heres a toast to Lt. Col Mueller.

Sounds like he lived a wonderful, full life. My condolences. I don't know what I would do if my Dad passed.

Will pour a scotch before bed out of respect. His life story appears to be that of an honorable man you could be proud to call your father. My best wishes go out to you and your family in this rough time.
