I've already stated my sentiments on the Prayer Forum to you, John, for this noble act.

Keep the Son in your eyes!
The words "Child" and "terminal illness" should never share the same sentence! Those who care-do, others question!

Sorry for the loss of your father John. I'm glad I got a chance to visit him this summer and spend some time talking about old friends and guns.

Couldn't imagine a more fitting gesture John. I know that I, for one, will think of him every time I walk that course. Take care, Paul.

Sorry for your loss. Never met your father but heard only good things about his ML barrel operation. Didn't know that he was heavy into traditional archery as well. I hope you will continue making barrels.
May he rest in peace.

Sorry for you loss John, did not know of your fathers passing. He was a great guy, true gentleman, and I never, ever, heard anyone say a negative word about him. I always liked him, we were always cutting up whenever I was around him at Pall Mall and Friendship. You are a lot like  him, both fine fellers. I lost my dad 2 years ago, so I can relate. Prayers sent for you and your family!
