bummer

Sorry to hear. Had one of my best buddies pass at the early age of 45 in the past year. Life is a longer journey for some than others.

The loved lost live forever in our memories. And isn't memories what life is really about? Reliving old ones and creating new ones is the essence of happiness. It is a very basic part of humanity I think. And in that way, they are never really gone. In that way we are all immortal.
 
prayers sent for him, his family and his friends. hard enough for "adults", and the kids left to deal with it....sucks all the way around.
 
Thank you all so much.. his son is just a young man..he is confused and overwhelmed.. we are treating him as family and have helped him figure out all the confusing legal stuff an we are honoring his father's severance agreement but changed the beneficiary to his son. And we decided to give his son the company car his dad used.. its just hard to make myself believe he is gone.. thanks everyone

That right there is a good dude

My dad passed a few years ago I'm only 32 it was very rough.

That is a very decent thing you did.

I still can't think about him without shedding a tear
 
Wow, that sucks. Very cool thing you did for his son, Rob. He would certainly appreciate it.
 
I really appreciate the friends on this forum.. you guys are all great an unlike any other forum I've ever seen, I feel that so many of you are so regular on here that I'd feel for any of you if you were going through hard times. Thanks everyone.. I hate the having to remember the loss every morning...sucks
 
Sorry to hear that. Prayers for his family. God bless that you are there to help.
 
Rob,
I am sorry for your loss, and I will pray for you and your friend's family.


All,
Heart disease takes way too many lives much too early. Three years ago I almost died from a heart attack – here is a link to the details:
My Heart Attack Experience

Please follow the link, check out the American Heart Association links at the bottom of the post, and become familiar with the signs of a heart attack. A lot of guys (we all think we are tough, right?) have symptoms of a heart attack and dismiss it as nothing serious, and sadly die from it (my dad is included in that group).

My recommendations are:
1) If you have severe symptoms, do not wait to call 911 (if I had waited another 15 minutes to call, I would have died).
2) If you have mild symptoms, get checked by a doctor as soon as possible.
3) Even if you have no symptoms and are 40-50 years old, especially if you have a family history that includes heart disease, be proactive and have some tests done to check your heart. Because my dad died from a heart attack, my family doctor had me undergo an MRI exam that looks for blockages in the coronary arteries (I think the test is called a "Calcium Score" or something like that). By the way, I felt great and had no symptoms until about 30-45 minutes prior to my heart stopping; fortunately the paramedics were able to get it beating again.

If you have family and/or friends you care about, get serious about this and be checked by a doctor. Take care!
 
Rob,

Our hearts break for you my friend.

A sudden, unexpected loss like that of a dear friend or family member seems to compound the grief as it replaces the disbelief.

You and yours are in our thoughts and prayers,

Jerry and crew
 
man It sucks at work cause every corner I walk around I see stuff that reminds me he was here just days ago :( work is much of my life..and this last week has been talking, messaging, and visiting customers and friends who are all heartbroke..its real depressing to do. im looking forward to some of the new blades I got coming..as it is something I really enjoy and Im just looking forward to getting my mind on something positive again..
 
this is crazy.. now I just learned that our CPA of 26 years died of a stroke.. no friends and family have died since 2007 an 8 years before that.. now 10 DEATHS since mid 2015:eek:
feels like the beginning of the end:(:confused:
