My Grandfather past away today, he was 76. He wasn't a rich man, but he built his own house and somehow raised 5 girls in it. He knew what putting a days work in really meant.

I never really knew him very well, either because I was too yung to care, or too scared to try to get to know him, but now it's too late. Let that be a lesson to some of you.

I won't be on the boards for awhile which I am sure will please some of you.

To everyone a good weekend.

I want to go like my grandfather, sleeping.

Not like the other passengers of his car, kicking and screeming.

Seriously, sorry to hear about your grandfather. Take care, and god speed.

Sorry to hear of your loss and grief - you're right- we need to deal with our family stuff while we still have the chance.  We often never get warning that it's gonna be too late.

Our prayers are with you.
