Thanks so much for sharing Son Of Yoop. Never met your dad in person...though we lived right around the corner from each other for the last 2 years. I have since enjoyed meeting your Mom. Nina is a lovely lady....I always enjoy her visits. She even brought me some of her homemade choke cherry wine. As like everybody.....I sure do miss your dad's wit and presence here on the forum. He was a rare breed.

Thank you sharing with us Rob. Reading your Dad's email was almost like he was talking to me directly. Even though we never met in person, I considered him my friend.
Deb, once again you amaze me in the lengths you go to to help us forum members. Not to sound like a kiss ass but I believe that without you this place would shrivel and die. Thank you again!

That email was really good, classic Yoop about the pizza.
That is a great gift, just hearing his voice through his words had to make your Mom happy and sad at the same time, but so worth it to hear his voice again.AAL:to be determined

We got there Yoop. Not the best outcome, but we will be back my friend. Take a year off up there and live it up. We will be here for you next year as well.
OBTW, when we win it next year, can you ask "The Man" to make it easier for us? Thanks.Passenger on the Lions bandwagon since 1969.

I bought a $200 ticket and a $20 ticket for Lions to win the SB on my Dad's birthday 10/01.
I sent the $20 ticket to my uncle (Dad's bro) as an Christmas present
Well this wasn't their year but I think I will place a Lions to win Super bowl bet every year on my Dad's birthday.
Now I have to change my Super bowl pick to anyone but the Packers. Go Giants
