My dad passed away last August, 2025
He was a really interesting and fun human being. I am super grateful for having him as a father. He was kind, funny, interesting, different than most men of his generation. Many people who met him felt a sweet spot in their hearts for having come across him. He sang lullabies to my family almost every night for much of our lives. He was a folk singer and a computer programmer. He was also cantankerous around politics, often unusual about things. Here are a bunch of the links to various media that were available when he passed away recently.
I miss you, Dad.
