Snazzy for sure.
 
Morning D
Definitely not a good week
Full of sadness...
We lost my dad a year ago, none of us had any heart to do anything for the fourth...it was his favorite holiday and we said our final goodbyes the day after.
I’m sad for @ymmot31 for losing his Dad, but I know he’s in a good place about it...at least as good of a place one can be and ymmot was as prepared as anyone could be. Your Dad lived a full life and he had an awesome son.. you’ll have wonderful memories to cherish and remember
Jared Lorenzen was a shock.. So sad for his family and the BBN
Truly, though...losing Sarah is the most devastating. She never had the chance to live her life. I can’t imagine what 93 is going through. There are no words to express the sorrow we feel and no words that can possibly comfort her family right now.
My heart hurts for all
Love and prayers
 
Well, no time will be a good time to drop this so...my father passed this morning around 1100. He had been in the hospital for a couple of days with an infection.

As far as deaths go, this was one of those that was predetermined and expected. He had pretty much made the decision to stop dialysis and end his pain. He had missed two treatments prior to his admission.

I found out from his dialysis doctor that he had discussed ending the treatments with him as well.

He was a hell of a fighter and climbed a steeper hill than many could muster.

I'm going to miss our adventures and going to the piddler malls with him.
My deepest condolences for your loss.
 
  • Good Morning, Everyone.
  • 73º in Johns Creek. Looks like rain. IFR I'd say.
  • We had just a dab of rain last night. We could use a good soaking rain.
  • This Dark Magic is real good this morning. 2nd mug going.
  • All of these deaths ........ too sad. Sarah - only 14 years old. Jared - only 38 years old. Ymmot's daddy was 88 years old. Ymmot took good care of his daddy as you know.
  • Take care. Be very careful.
  • Carry on.
  • As you were.

Beautiful words and spoken from the heart as only a lady can express. Thank you.,
 
I'm sorry for your loss, my dad passed two years ago and i'm still feeling lost in the world without him.

Thanks for the kind words. I already feel the void.

So sorry to wake up to this news this morning. You showed a love and care for your father that many fathers never experience. I know he understood just how special your love was. Your love and dedication to him is a reflection of your character and only a real man has those traits. I want to thank you for that example and for sharing those times with the D-League over the days and months of his illness.

Our prayers are with you and your family and years in the future you will look back on times of memories with him with a smile. I am thankful you had those experiences and you will never forget them. God bless you

Thank you Sawnee, that was beautifully said and brought tears to my eyes.

I’m sorry for the loss of your dad.

Thanks Jed, I appreciate it. Don't be a such a stranger here.

Thanks Bev! And yes, as far as recent deaths go, my father's is the example of the way things are supposed to work. He lived a full life, traveled the world, had a good wife for 60 years, and best of all he got to choose the time of his passing.

I am very sad at his death, but I understand and I'm able to justify it. He's a hero for all of us. He donated his health to protect this country and all of our freedoms from the scourge of communism that is now attacking us from the inside. He did all he could do and that's all you can ask of anyone.

My deepest sympathy Ymmot. Thoughts and prayers to you and your family in this time of need.
 

Thanks pal.

88 years and still being able to get out and about occasionally is what I would call a good full life. You are a truly good son. My condolences. Rough week around here.

Thanks. Yeah it's been rough. Just found out earlier that the mother of a couple of friends of mine from way back passed yesterday morning as well. Her service is going to be at the same cemetery as my father's and as soon as his concludes.

Thank you. Take a day for yourself at this time, but come Monday I expect to see a bunch of links for UK news!

Could not find the words myself so, allow me to piggyback off of yours as they convey mine as well.

Very well said as well.

Good Sunday Morning D League

We have had some soaking rains this week and the pattern is expected to continue. Our current temperature is 79° and we expect a high of 91° I am going to grab another cup of coffee and get ready for church services. When my heart is heavy and storm clouds gather, I just lay my burdens on the Lord. I am weak and He is strong, He understands so I will just let it be. Trust all have a restful day and say a prayer for me as you worship in faith.

  • Good M.orning, Y'all.
  • 79º in Johns Creek. VFR. Clear skies mostly. We need rain badly.
  • Sad times, 3 funerals going. Praying for all of them for peace.
  • Have to get this BGE going soon. Cooking some of those meaty back ribs is the plan. Simple.
  • #5 has Bite Correction Surgery on the 10th. Dread it for him.
  • Be safe today. Watch your driving.
  • Those police made a Starbuck's customer uncomfortable. That's bullshit.
  • As you were.
  • Carry on.
 
Wife brought me some coffee. It sure is good.

Her office cohorts sent us a couple of boxes of assorted fruits and cheeses to take to the funeral home. I told her since they sent two that they obviously meant for us to keep one here at the house.

Speaking of funeral home, we'll be heading over there at noon for the viewing. Probably going to see some people I haven't seen for awhile and they will all know my name and I won't know a soul. I hate that and it even happens with people I graduated high school with.

Remember and recognize are two different things altogether.

I saw that story but I didn't click on it because I knew it would just piss me off.

Morning D
Been off a few days....
yommt sorry for your loss, I always envied how much time you spent with your Dad. I should make it a priority to do more with mine. I will miss reading about those trips you guys would take together. Prayers & condolences.

UKGrad93 & Sarah is just heartbreaking...

Thanks. We sure did have a lot of fun times in just these last 4 years, but it was getting harder and harder on him to go and he started cancelling trips because he just hurt too much to get out of bed. I hate for it to end but my consolation is that I know he's resting easy now.
