Remembering My Dad

Old Blue just became infinitely more valuable to me this past Wednesday morning. Around 8:15 that morning, my dad finished his battle with pancreatic cancer. It became his gift to me this past Father's Day when he decided to quit driving.

Sorry for your loss. Treasure the truck as your inheritance as it will mean more than money ever could.
