Charlie Harley, #14153 Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 I know Thanksgiving is a special time and I’m not trying to throw a wet blanket on anyone’s gathering. The feast has always been a special time for my wife. She loves cooking and feeding people, especially large family gatherings. In 2014 her dad was living with us, which actually added something special to the day in spite of his poor health. Around 1 o’clock she hollered down that the dinner was ready. Her dad got up, washed his hands, and had what was apparently a massive heart attack. He died in the arms of his daughter and his grandsons. While we are all grateful that he got to transition forward surrounded by family and friends and hearing words of love, there has been a pall over the holiday ever since. As you gather with your families this weekend, please send up a kind thought for my wife and sons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Gauntlet , SASS 60619 Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 Sudden death, sudden glory; as the old preachers used to say. Sad, indeed, but not so bad a way to go; full of years, fast, with family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
