I just found out my dad passed away on March 22nd. I really didn't know that well. My mom and dad split up when I was 5. I only saw my dad 3 times - once when I was about 13 or 14, I went to visit him when he lived in Phoenix, then I visited him in San Antonio just before my first wife and I got married, then we visited him again around the time of our first anniversary. That last visit was in 1990.

I haven't much contact with either of my half-sisters that live in San Antonio either, so I guess it's my fault that I only found out about his passing today. My youngest sister posted something on Facebook on the 22nd, but that was a Saturday and I normally don't check FB on the weekends and I just didn't see her post once I did check it.
