.....I have received an email from DaddyO's (Jim's) wife, Carol, the sad news of his passing away last Friday.
It has stunned me that he is gone. Jim has invited my husband and I (and Sherri also) to meet him for a nice big steak dinner over in the big ole USA.
We were in the throes of going back to the USA to see more of America, and yes, to finally meeting up with DaddyO from "across the pond" and he used to so fondly put it. I am feeling somewhat sad, even though we have never met, I will miss his presence on the forum, or on the occasional email about families and life.

I'll miss him.
He was an interesting poster and always stood his ground.
RIP DaddyO.

So sad to hear. He was not all that old either. I've been a bit concerned as he had not been on the board lately and we knew from past posts that his health had not been good these last few months. I know that he was actually in the process of standing for election on his local council, with voting in April and he had a lot of plans for the betterment of his neighbourhood.
He was a man of strong opinions and added a lively presence to the forums. We're going to miss him.
RIP DaddyO.
