Sad Day
« on: November 17, 2015, 07:32:43 PM »
Well after fighting for 3 1/2  weeks my good friend passed away this morning at  3:00 am ..From Congestive  Heart failure
  He was doing so well that they were going to move him  in the next couple of days, into a ward where his re-hab could be more easily obtained.  He was  getting better daily, able to walk with the aid of a walker and use the restroom ,this was very important to him,
    REST IN PEACE........  My Friend

Spending time with my grandkids gets in the way of finishing my car but I don't regret it!

Losing ones you love is part of life. When it has happened a few times we learn that we need to cherish those dear to us. With all my heart I believe we'll see them again. If I'm right,  we will. If I'm wrong, I'm happier in my belief. God bless your friend's family.
The probability of life originating from accident is comparable to the probability of the unabridged dictionary resulting from an explosion in a printing shop.  Edwin Conklin

Thanks Guys for all  the  kind words....but life still  goes on..... we made a lot of memories together

I will share one ...He wanted to do a chop on his '39 Chevy , I Was driving a Model A  chopped sedan delivery which was the first chop that I did.  I told him it would be kind of hard and we had to learn as we went ,he said we will either chop it and make it look good or else he would have a convertible. After about 3  afternoons and evenings, and a lot of ribbing from the wives. and they were filming this entire event we finished our job.
  He still owned the car upon his death, drove it on rare occasions. He owned a trim shop, so all interior was done in  aircraft Ultra leather.  so now I am helping his wife sell his 39.......

Sorry to hear about your friend, I prayed for him but in this case God had better plans.  The two of you will see each other again.
