Lost a good friend sat.
« on: Nov 03, 2008, 06:52:04 PM »
I was gonna throw this in Shambs thread but decided not too.

Sat. a good friend of mine passed away from cancer. He'd been fighting it for over a year now, pretty good since the dr's only gave him six weeks when they found it. Last week he was in the hostpital and dr's told him he was too sick and weak to continue chemo, gave him about 2 weeks to live. He only made it a few more days. I feel like :pokinit: because I put off going to see him because I was too busy, and was waiting til I could go talk to him by myself. He left behind two sons (2 and 4 years old) and a wife.

That sucks Tice, don't feel too bad as in Shamb's thread you never know when it will happen even though you had some warning. Not anyone I've met was it?

All we can do is live every day like it's our last one.
YOU ONLY NEED TWO TOOLS IN LIFE - WD-40 AND DUCT TAPE. IF IT DOESN'T MOVE
AND SHOULD, USE THE WD-40. IF IT SHOULDN'T MOVE AND DOES, USE THE DUCT TAPE.

IF YOU CAN'T FIX IT WITH A HAMMER, YOU HAVE AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM.

It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.

Josh seemed like a good guy and he gave it a brave fight. I know you were very close to him...I mourn your loss.
The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first.
