Armando,

I'm so sorry about your loss. Your childhood sounds like mine and I can easily put myself into your shoes. Please remember the good times while you mourn.

My deepest sympathies to you and your family. I know how special the bond between father and son can be. I lost my dad 26 years ago and I still think about him every day.

One really funny storyWell I was called Owl during my childhood because my thik glases (btw I got lasik about 8 years ago) so from the begining of teen years I know that to be a pilot was a really non realistic dream so I studied to be and become an engineer but the passion to soar across the sky never got vanish in my heart, so during years of modeller, aviation study my father aswered a phone call asking for Captain Giron (that´s me Armando Giron) we share same voice by phone and my father tought a prank call saying Captain What ??????? the caller aswer him back sorry Col. Giron we're looking for your son Captain Giron (for many people if you like planes you have to be plane captain or to be in the military)so when I returned back from job my father made me call them back but only after doing that he was laughing really heavy he told me the much he enjoyed aswering the call

Best day

Armando
