Although I was only able to work with him for a short period of time, it was worth every minute. Funny guy and wealth of knowledge. He will be missed.
Please accept my deepest condolences for your family's loss.

Although I did not know your father, I feel just my knowing you Will, that I would have liked him a lot. I am not sure who wrote the following but the words seem appropriate. "After the tears have dried and the goodbyes have been said, all we have to hold onto are the happy memories that we’ve shared with our loved ones who have passed, this is what keeps them alive in our hearts and in our minds, and they will continue to live on, through us." My condolences to you and your family.

A veteran of the United States marines, my father, John McMeekin taught me the value of hard work and perseverance from a young age through example by demonstrating those qualities himself. I remember when we would take our daily road trips to Cheshire Academy at 4:00 in the morning before he went to work. We’d get coffee together and he’d teach me about life, then I’d study in the dining hall until school started.
I remember when I was in high school, my grandma Bernice lifted the backpack I used to carry to school every day and she said, “Boy! This is heavy. You don’t mind carrying this heavy thing with you all the time?” and I said “I don’t mind; it builds character.” She laughed and said, “you sure are your father’s daughter!” This was a phrase I heard often, and it’s a phrase I never got tired of hearing.
I remember how proud he was that time I solved a math problem that helped him at work. I remember how that pride escalated and how visible it was in his smile when he saw me graduate from Cornell University with my PhD in mathematics.
As Issac Newton said, “If have seen father, it is by standing on the shoulders of giants.”
