Been gone for awhile.My Dad lost his battle.

Post by WillyThickfoot »

Needless to say its been a rough couple months.My Dad has been in poor health for some time now and on the 15 at 2:30pm he suffered a heart attack and passed away.We laid him to rest on the 23rd.I havnt been online for awhile and figured I should say hello and touch base with you guys.Sorry to RC10eh for not gettin back to you.I sooo meant to get that stuff sent out to you but I honestly just couldnt focus on anything.You have been very patient and I wanted to thank you for that.

Thanks,Dave

It's hard losing a parent. My mother passed away last march from cancer and i'm no where near being completely recovered from it. The only thing you can do is stay occupied long enough so that you can forget when you need to but still be able to remember or reflect at the same time.
