Hello

This may be a little bit belated, but nonetheless... I wanted to thank you all for your friendship with my dad, Cal.
I can honestly say, that yes, you were his extended family and I don't think you could possible know just how much you all kept him going at times where things were pretty tough.

He talked (and talked and talked) with so much pride and excitement about the projects he was working on, particularly Yoshimi, and I do believe a fundamental in keeping him going much longer than anyone expected.
He passed peacefully in July, and whilst it was sudden I was with him and there was no pain or suffering, it was just time for him to rest.

He'd be so happy to know yoshimi lives on in many ways, so thank you again.

Thank you very much for writing. 

You picked the moment you could write about what you had to tell us, and did it so beautifully that now seems like just the right time to do so.  

I still miss reading his emails.  

All the best to you. Have a good year 2012.
