Sad day

My dad passed away today. He lost a long hard fight to kidney cancer. A few of you got to meet him on some local Subie drives. He was a lifetime Subaru fan. He worked the Subie parts department at Prestige Imports in Santa Rosa forever. He turned me into a Subie lover for life. I am going to miss him terribly. Good luck on your new journey in life Dave!! I love you.

I'm sorry to hear that Bro, Don't know you but I feel your pain I lost my Dad 4 years ago. All I can say is be strong. The pain will never go away but you'll learn to deal with it as time goes by.Always appreciate the time that you had with him.

Oh **** dude, I'm sorry to hear about your loss. Remember the times that you had with him, all the things that you two enjoyed in life together, and the pain will be softened a little bit. Keep him in your heart.

Hey Nicole,

I don't know you, but I know exactly how your feeling right now.

Just remember that your life consists of many chapters and many journeys. You have to accept to close this chapter in the same way you closed the chapter to your childhood... by moving on and learning from your experiences.

Your father lived a good life, especially since he made a fellow Subaru Enthusiast out of you

R.I.P. to your father Dave.

Kevin

Yeah bro, got me a lump in the throat reading this. It sounds like this bout with cancer was painful, but now he doesn't have to suffer anymore. Sorry for your loss. My heart goes out to you and your family.

Never met the guy but soo sorry to hear this news. My best friends dad lost a battle with cancer too back in 06 and it was such a heartbreaking thing to see. I wish you the best through the times to come, its going to be difficult but you will learn and adapt to be able to get through it.

RIP
