Sorry for your loss, Wardaddy.
Losing folks is never easy.
Lost one of my dear buddies last September. Had the honor and privilege of being there to bid farewell as he left us. Vietnam vet, retired homicide detective. A Sheepdog, damned fine American Patriot, and a true friend.
We all go Home eventually.
Best we can hope for is to have the folks we care about and who care about us around us to wish us off and raise a glass to us on the anniversary.
My condolences to and yours, friend.
Thanks
