It has been four months since my father died. Tomorrow afternoon a US Coast Guard boat will take my step-mother and I out to sea where my father’s ashes will be scattered. I really wanted to write more tonight. I’ve got a million thoughts running through my head. I have been through so many changes since my dad died, however, as I sit before my computer screen it’s clear that I am not yet ready to say what’s on my mind.

My father-in-law, Robert E. Schneider, passed away Saturday, February 12th, 2011. Today was his memorial service and in honor of Bob, I am posting my eulogy.
My relationship with Bob was one where I felt not so much like a son-in-law, but more like a son. I always looked to Bob as a father figure. I know it always brought a smile to his face when I called him Pop. Pop was a man who took great pride in everything he did. I think that was one of the things that really brought us together. We both see there being two ways to doing something… the wrong way and our way. Pop was always willing to teach you the right way to do something.
