Jim and family,
Sorry to hear of the loss of your father. I worked with you and your dad for 8 yrs. Started when I was 15 washing dishes $1.50 an hour.Far Away Joes was a place I will never forget.I ran into June and that is how I heard. Wish I could of been there or even got to see your dad before he passed. I ran into him in Orland mall a few years back and it was great to see him.Find comfort that he is at peace and he will always live on through you and his grandkids.
