Thanks again guys, and for passing along your stories. Good group here. I suspected as much  Im cool with it. Aint gonna keep a dry eye but will be OK. Priest on the way and we will get the ball rolling. Aint worried about me, just the kids sis and cuz. Type of funeral service, inform buddies ?? Sis and cuz asking. Uh, he was a gun guy. None of that wishy washy stuff LOL. Let em drink or blast a critter in remembrance. Or not. However his kin and friends want to honor or remember is fine. Can choose not to also. I dont get all the emotion of some. Dead is dead and after that the pageantry is for the living, mostly for those in the business of pageantry.

Sorry to hear this Hookeye, take care buddy.
Due to the increased price of ammo, don't expect a warning shot...

Thanks again.
Trying to find his funeral stuff he claimed he did a yr or so ago. No place has record of it. My dad OCD, keeps and labels everything. Found everything, but that.
Kids laughed at old pics.

Old pic's are great - hope it all works out OK.
Unfortunately - dying is a fact of life.
Just think how over-populated Ma Earth would be - without death.
I feel the effects of aging - don't want to stick around forever.
I've always been a curmudgeon - now I'm an old curmudgeon.

Cant sleep.
Pops in ICU and fam has decided to stop further procedures.
Should be over with this afternoon
But maybe not.
Gonna happen soon enough
Hope the old man has a smooth transition.
Had a good run, mobile and sane til recent. Had health issues, not unexpected.
So the last bit a little bumpy but overall a good run.
Thankful for the great medical people. Indeed some have a calling.
Take care Champ. Gonna miss ya.
I've been in your situation Hookeye and it sucks. I am very sorry for you and your family. Prayers and best wishes from me. Bob
