Good afternoon Men!

It's been a busy past couple of days...
Anyway, I will have a post soon of all my recent pick ups.

Richard, thanks for the great work you are doing with the Vet's. I patronize the American Legion post here, I love socializing with these men and ladies.

Nice pics, Richard. Just thinking how neat custom WWII vet cards (using old pics) would be. Or maybe that's a dumb idea...I dunno.

I think that would be awesome! Have them include pieces of a uniform or their duffle bags....boots. Man that would be awesome!

So my good morning has taken a sad turn.

I never knew either of my paternal grandmothers - growing up my mother's best befriend's mother filled in. She is the only grandmother I have known since childhood. Now at the age of 92, she will be leaving us in tears. Its just a matter of if I can get there in time to say goodbye.

I know 92 is a good span for any person, but when its all you have known its just that much harder to accept.

Sorry man.
I just traveled to Tampa last week to say good bye to my grandma.
She'll be leaving us any day. She's in Hospice care now at the age of 78, it was very hard.
If you need anything, please let us know!

Sorry Johnny - hopefully you make it in time to share some love with her! I'm very new to the MT but I'm sure that everyone is here for you along with myself!

Thank you everybody.

I still find it strange that the people on these boards reach out the way they do at times like this. Sometimes I feel more friendship and kindness from members here than I do with the friends that I have in day to day life.
