So sorry for your loss - I recall the username Spie from the many years of being a lurker, then finally a member of OcUK.
Your Father achieved so much in his life, things others would only dream of - let alone dare to do. This community is a testament to one of the things he created, and has always been an amazing place to be part of - you not only felt like a member, but a member of the family too.
Though the memories never replace the person we lose, time indeed heals, and continuing his legacy in any way - will honor his memory.
My thoughts are with you and your family.
