MadHatterGraphix 1,258 Posted July 22, 2014 Got a phone call from my cousin today and he informed me that my uncle (moms brother) passed away last night. He was only 77 yrs old. The cause is natural and his funeral is this Friday. Please say a prayer for all the family. He was a fun, loving and sometimes a hard ass of a guy. However when my brother and I came around it was fun time for him. He would pour a whole can of lighter fluid on charcoal and light it my god that was so cool when I was younger. He also drove truck for the local dairy up north I loved that job he would take us to work when we would visit and we would get free cheese curds. and one time my bike chain and brakes broke and he came down for a visit and he helped me fix it. We had some awesome times and those I remember. At least mom and uncle will be together with their parents, aunts, uncles, cousins, and a nephew. I seriously cant take anymore deaths.

MadHatterGraphix 1,258 Posted July 22, 2014 Bob that's just cause I have been drowning myself in learning new things I think if it wasn't for a family that sticks together, and a supportive crew here on the forum. I appreciate everyone's prayers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

knucklehead 530 Posted July 22, 2014 Sending Prayers, feeling your pain. My Mom and Dad, the wifes Mom and Dad, all passed within two years , back in the nineties. You get kinda numb to it after a couple. Hated to hear the phone ring. That was back when the phone would ring, and you had to 'go' answer it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
