Cancer hits the Colbys again
 
Less than two years after my brother passed from colon cancer, my father lost his battle with cancer and rheumatoid arthritis this morning. He was 80 years old and without him I would have never learned how to drive a boat or have the career I now enjoy. So to anyone on these forums, spend time enjoying your boat with your family because time goes by way too fast.

Truer words have never been spoken. Spend time doing ANYTHING with them. I miss my Dad everyday and it's been 5 years.

Sorry for your loss.

Hey Eric,

Very sorry to hear about the loss of your dad.

This pretty touching video captures alot of memories in regard to boating with dads or grandpas.
