I am sitting next to my dad’s hospital bed. He will be 85 next month. We just put him in comfort care. He has a few hours left. He became a college professor, after being told he was not smart enough to become a college student. And spent the rest of his life proving his them wrong. He was also a gentleman farmer with a 3 acre mini farm with fruit trees and berries and potatoes and every veggie in the world. He loved making his own juice, from cider to grape. He would dance in the grocery store before it was cool, and sneak us grape sodas on car trips.

He was a spectacular dad. And a super fun papa and greatgrandpapa.

He asked Shane and I to dinner after he and my mom divorced. He made us browned butter and Mizythra spaghetti. Only he thought it was brown *sugar*and Mizythra. He shrugged and said, oh well, I just didn’t want to make a dessert too.” it was delicious but we all gained about 100 pounds.

Another time we left him alone with a brand new electronic keyboard one Saturday afternoon. We came home and he had written an entire rock opera.

I asked him once what his greatest regret was in life. He said it was thinking that working all the time was a moral imperative. And that he didn’t continue with his high school pop band.

For 30 years, we went to Taco Bell every Thursday night. We’d talk about our week and what was happening at work and how things were going. The kids would show off their homework and awards and projects.

Life is so short, so fragile, so fast.

My father taught me joy. He taught me persistence. He taught me to work hard. He taught me to be creative. He taught me to forgive. He taught me to be adventurous. He taught me about consequences and disappointment.

We cheapen life so much. People are an interruptions, an irritation. We often realize way too often too late, that people are the only reason we are here. The sole purpose of life.

I’m going to miss my daddy. But someday, we will work together again, hunting agates, building furniture, making each other laugh with stupid jokes.

Until then, he will always be in my heart. Because I want to be a lot like my daddy when I grow up.

No Doubt.

[I like B1G Ducks and i cannot lie @_JordanFlowers_]

Does “No fans in attendance” justify and 85” TV purchase?

[niles ramage @nilesramage]

Full Respect for those who put their lives on the line to protect our lives and our property.

As a news station we get an update email daily on the Holiday Farm Fire. Despite yesterday's winds fanning some embers, nothing escaped the interior. They continue to make progress and the fire is about 35% contained. These people never cease to amaze me! True heroes!

[niles ramage @nilesramage]

GOOD Work!! Rooting for you.

[Aaron🦛 @Aj17142]

Nervous to post this but the boys were hyping me up. Around a year exactly of progress. Still got aways to go

[niles ramage @nilesramage]

Damn look at those shoulders. Nice work.

[niles ramage @nilesramage]

So don't. Ignorance is bliss.

[Nicole Lynn @AgentNicoleLynn]

I hate counting backwards from the time I need to get up to see how many hours of sleep ima get.

[niles ramage @nilesramage]

So happy for the country that they got to see what this young man did for The DUCKS for 4 years, under ever changing situations. I hope he continues to improve his game and has an INCREDIBLE career.

[Kurt Warner @kurt13warner]

To not get many Prac reps... to find out you are playing 30 mins before game... to have to run a gameplan for a different QB... playing against best QB/team in NFL... and to be playing in your 1st NFL game... all our tough, young #JustinHerbert impressed us all today!!

[niles ramage @nilesramage]

You got it.

[Ja'Quay hubbard @Jhubb3366]

My mother suffered a stroke this morning. Please keep her in your thoughts as she fights🙏🏽❤️...

[niles ramage @nilesramage]

So sorry to hear this. Prayers up from Eugene, OR. Prayers of comfort and peace.

[niles ramage @nilesramage]

Herbert is such a positive and upbeat dude. Rooting hard for his success.

[Steve Tannen @SportsTalk953]

This is odd for me. In 27 years doing sports radio in Eugene, never really done the 'root for a Duck in the NFL thing' Had my NY pro loyalty for 50 years. Find myself pulling so so hard for Herbs & the Chargers here. I think it's just him. Top notch guy & EZ to cheer for.

[niles ramage @nilesramage]

YUUMmmm! Where is mine?

[niles ramage @nilesramage]

HaPpY BiRtHdAy!!

Gal Gadot watch out.

That's a breath of fresh air...
Well almost.

[Steve Tannen @SportsTalk953]

Our air quality has now reached "moderate". Went outside with my dog just to breath in the mediocrity.

[niles ramage @nilesramage]

That is TOO CUTE.
I have a LOVE/HATE relationship with onions.

[niles ramage @nilesramage]

Beautiful ring. Wearing it as a right hand ring is cool.
