I did get to meet him very briefly when I was 27 we didn't get to spend much time together not enough time to really catch up on the past

how sad, I'm with the others, it's nice that you'll have a recent photo of him to remember him by and that's really wonderful that your name was mentioned in his obit. I'm so sorry for your loss :hug It's never easy to lose a family member even if you're not that close.
