My dad and John were talking and john wanted to know about his education. My dad explained that he had dropped out of college. John encouraged him to not give up and to continue his education. My dad did. Even getting a chance to study at the Wharton school of business.

So sorry to hear of your father's passing. My dad got me into the Pontiac hobby and we lost him two years ago.
