Frank sorry for your loss.
I just lost my father a suddenly a few days ago.I herd him fall in the bathroom he was able to answer my questions at first but then stop breathing and had to do CPR while on the phone with 911. This is the hardest thing I ever had to deal with.I can not get this experience out of my head.
My father played the horses his whole life. He would watch TVG all day. I can,t even turn it on now. He first took me to the Monmouth park when I was 5 years old. I wasn't even allowed to go in the track back then. My mother would have to stay out side with me. All I could do was look through fence. I even remember the first horse I told him to bet his name was Mr.Brick and of course he won and have been playing the horses for 53 years now.
My father would go just about everywhere with me. If I was out working in the middle of the night he would always call me to see if I was OK. He would always worry about no matter how old I was. I am going to miss all that so much.
I thought that by writing about this it might help me. My dad did not have life insurance and my friends put this GoFundMe page up.

Thank you for listening to me.
