What's this?

It will be 12 years in February that I lost my dad. There's not a day

that goes by that I don't miss him - and in so many ways: Getting advice, hearing a story, getting a laugh or just shooting the bull. We still have Mom, and she acts like an 18 year-old in an 86 year-old's body. And she misses Dad even more.

Enjoy you dad - and your mom -- while you still have him.

Laze was great. Please bring back Roth. ** -- FreeBurg 01/03/2022 9:31PM

Agree ** -- VaTechHokiesACC 01/03/2022 7:33PM

I’m not the nostalgic type and I honestly preferred him to Roth. -- marcbvtgm 01/03/2022 5:44PM

Same here. It took me a bit to warm up to Jon, but I've really enjoyed... -- EDGEMAN 01/03/2022 3:14PM

And many people said that about Bill Roth after Jeff Charles left -- Happy Dog 01/03/2022 5:14PM

Same! ** -- VPIFightnGobbler 01/03/2022 4:41PM

Will Bill Roth please step forward. -- FloydsBarberShop 01/03/2022 3:13PM

Totally agree on both points. We are giving away our age here. ;-) ** -- HokieJay 01/03/2022 10:26PM

I don't understand his explanation -- WestyHokie 01/03/2022 2:41PM

His messaging is muddled... -- One4VT 01/03/2022 2:58PM

Losing a Dad and the sudden announcement seem to support that -- WildTurkE 01/03/2022 3:10PM

Hmmm, I didn't get that at all from his message ** -- Brown Water 01/03/2022 4:51PM

I lost my dad and was lost.... I can understand ** -- UberHOKIE 01/03/2022 4:11PM

Me too - It was a significant marker in my lifestyle changes ** -- WildTurkE 01/03/2022 6:57PM

Oh man... yeah, still have mine... -- One4VT 01/03/2022 4:50PM

This ** -- Jbohokie63 01/03/2022 4:34PM

Can we finally get Roth back now? ** -- mvick 01/03/2022 2:24PM

If we can't get him maybe we can get one of his students. ** -- OrlandoHokie 01/03/2022 2:29PM

DonV! ** -- WildTurkE 01/03/2022 2:54PM

That would be hilarious. Put a 5 second delay on a football broadcast. ** -- Hokie 04 01/03/2022 3:59PM

Great great guy. Just wonder what he meant -- DCL 01/03/2022 2:21PM

Ditto, ditto, ditto ** -- TomTurkey 01/03/2022 1:51PM
