Condolence: 爸爸在2020年3月29日早6:20永远的离开了我们,去天国和他的小女兒汇合,相互陪伴。

爸爸二十世紀五十年代初考入北京地质学院,现在的中国地质大学。毕业后到四川石油管理局工作,之后又被调往贵阳,率队参加大庆会战。六十年代初在贵阳结识妈妈,婚后在贵阳先后有了他的大,小女兒,之后调回位於成都的四川石油管理局研究院,在成都有了後來最最關愛的小兒子。

爸爸是一位地质专家和学者,他极度熱愛工作。早年曾转战中國大陸大江南北,包括柴达木盆地,贵阳,云南,重庆、黑龍江大庆等地。他不辞辛劳,勤恳工作,培養后輩地質工作者,为中国石油地質工业做出很大贡献。1959年初曾带领云南考察大队119测量小队持续野外工作四月多,爬山涉水,山林中帐蓬露营,是我家戶外远足徒步第一人。當時帐外狮狼吼叫,用仅配一支左轮手枪护卫全队安全,也是其子女喜爱枪支的鼻祖。

生活中爸爸是一位平凡的普通人。因为爷爷去世很早,他对奶奶有极深的感情,也非常孝顺。不过爸爸也继承了李家传统的脾气比较大的缺点。当然爸爸也负担起了家庭的重担,和妈妈一起把我们三个孩子抚养长大。我们自然也非常感恩。记得爸爸在女儿们大学时出差梁平,气喘吁吁地给两个在重庆的她们送去一人一大麻袋梁平柚子。幼子初中体育课不会单杠动作,爸爸陪着练习,自己先练会了,然后手把手教儿子学会。

爸爸退休后同妈妈共同抚育孙辈,同时也养成了收集钱币、炒股的业余爱好,而且酷爱旅行。足迹留在了美,加东,两两岸。纽约,费城,华盛顿DC,迈阿密,洛杉矶,拉斯维加斯,大峡谷,多伦多,魁北克,蒙特利尔都有他的身影,还或遊轮,或飞行去了加勒比,多米尼加,墨西哥等地。老年生活有滋有味,丰富多彩。然而,2015年开始逐渐有些失忆,慢慢发展到最后的年老失智,影响行走。自2016年9月开始在老年护理院生活,2020年3月离开了他生活近八十七年的土地,去往天国。

翻看爸爸过往的照片,爸爸就像一直在我們的身边不曾离开。江油的小木屋,石油大院五楼三百号,多伦多的小院,纽约,台湾,洛杉矶,拉斯维加斯,迈阿密,多米尼加......

爸爸啊,大家愛你,您一路走好!

我们天国再相见!

Condolence: Dad left us forever at 6:20 a.m. on March 29, 2020, and went to heaven to meet his little daughter and accompany each other.

Dad was admitted to the Beijing Institute of Geology in the early 1950s and now China University of Geosciences. After graduating, he worked in the Sichuan Petroleum Administration Bureau, and then was transferred to Guiyang to lead the team to participate in the Daqing battle. In the early 1960s, he met his mother in Guiyang. After his marriage, he had his eldest and youngest daughters in Guiyang. Then he was transferred back to the Research Institute of Sichuan Petroleum Administration in Chengdu, where he later had the most loving youngest son.

Dad is a geologist and scholar. He loves work extremely. In the early years, he fought in the north and south of China's major rivers, including the Qaidam Basin, Guiyang, Yunnan, Chongqing, and Daqing, Heilongjiang. He worked tirelessly, worked diligently, trained younger geologists, and made great contributions to China's petroleum geological industry. At the beginning of 1959, he led the Yunnan survey team 119 survey team to continue the field work for more than April, climbing the mountain and wading, camping in the tent in the mountain forest, is the first person in my family to hike outdoors. At that time, the lion wolf roared and used only one revolver to protect the safety of the team. It was also the originator of his children's favorite guns.

Dad is an ordinary ordinary person in life. Because Grandpa died very early, he has a deep feeling for grandma and is very filial. However, Dad also inherited the traditional shortcomings of the Li family. Of course, Dad also shouldered the burden of the family, and raised our three children together with Mom. We are naturally very grateful. I remember my dad was on a business trip to Liang Ping while his daughters were at university, and breathlessly sent the two of them in Chongqing to Liang Pingyu with a cannabis bag. The junior junior high school physical education class does not perform horizontal bar movements. Dad accompanies the practice. He has practiced first, and then teaches his son to learn by hand.

After his father retired, he and his mother raised their grandchildren. At the same time, they also developed a hobby of collecting coins and stocks, and loved traveling. The footprint remains in the US, Kadong, and on both sides of the strait. New York, Philadelphia, Washington DC, Miami, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Grand Canyon, Toronto, Quebec, Montreal all have his figure, or cruise ship, or flying to the Caribbean, Dominica, Mexico and other places. Life in old age is interesting and colorful. However, in 2015, he gradually started to lose some memory, and gradually developed into the last elderly dementia, which affected walking. He has lived in a nursing home for the elderly since September 2016. In March 2020, he left the land where he lived for nearly 87 years and went to heaven.

Looking at the photos of Dad's past, Dad seems to have been by our side and never left. Jiangyou ’s cabin, No. 300, 5th floor, Petroleum Yard, Toronto Yard, New York, Taiwan, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Miami, Dominica ...

Dad, everyone loves you, you go all the way!

See you again in heaven!
