Showgun Posted December 29, 2011 Report Share Posted December 29, 2011 Just got back from a very sad event: -- had to bury a friend today and am feeling low. Not nearly as low, no doubt, as his family. Gary was only 63 leaving a wife, son, daughter and 2 grandkids.... who must all feel the loss tremendously.:RpS_sad: My only consolation is that now Gary is up there chatting with my Dad who's been gone now for more than 10 years -- probably telling my Dad how good or bad I've been since his departure. God bless Gary. He was a good man with a big heart and we'll miss him. Thanks for listening. Colin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gipraw Posted December 29, 2011 Report Share Posted December 29, 2011 Sorry to hear the news, Colin. That is always a tough thing to deal with, and as I get older, I find myself dealing with it way too often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Showgun Posted December 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2011 Yeah, I don't know if it's happening more often, or I'm noticing it more the older I get, but it sure is happening too much. sigh. C. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Livernois Motorsports Posted December 30, 2011 Report Share Posted December 30, 2011 Sorry for your loss Colin! It's never easy to lose a family member or friend. I lost my grandfather a few months back and miss him greatly. I know he lived a great life and is in a better place now. Just try to think of the good times you had together. RIP Gary!

bpd1151 Posted December 30, 2011 Report Share Posted December 30, 2011 Condolences. Weird isn't it that as we age, that the passage of one's friends (& family) seems to happen with more frequency and each one hits closer and closer to home? Sucks man. Plain and simple. Again, condolonces Colin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
