Goodbye dad

My dad died this morning. Richard Simonsen has been my rock. The guy who taught about music, about life, politics. He took me to Wrestlemania X, Yankee Games, NY Giants Games, NY Jets Games, NY Knicks games, NJ Nets games, Ring Of Honor wrestling, New Japan Wrestling, Dragon Gate USA Wrestling, Disney World, MAGFest. He and my mom took me all over the place campaigning. Went from flordia to maine to ohio to Tennessee. We went saw Elvis' house. I still have the seats from WMX. I'm not sure exact seats because they didn't number them. Each seat was number 1 of 500 so it could be ours or someone elses. My dad always helped me and oh god i'm going to miss him. He tell me stories about when he knew Bruce Springsteen and of the Asbury Park music scene. He was helping on a book on the music of AP before he died. Still got the photos and articles from him. I don't know what I'm going to do without him. Thanksgiving and Christmas coming up. I always will love you and miss you a whole lot. Goodbye dad.
