| | Good Man Gone:( I just returned from the saddest 4 days of my life. Went to visit my Dad last Tuesday who wasn't feeling well and 6 hours later he had passed away. he was a a great Man. And I will miss him more then anyone I've ever known.
And he is the one that got me started in wood carving, many years ago. I started him carving with a couple of small Goose blanks in 1988, and in 1989 he sent me a pair of duck blanks. As time went on he carved less and less and I carved more and more.
So say a prayer for a follow Wood Carver tonight. I know he would appreciate it.

| | Re: Good Man Gone:( Gergie,
I'm sorry to hear your Dad died. My Dad died in August, and it still feels like it happened yesterday. I'll say a prayer for your Dad, and you and your family. Keep yourself busy--especially with the things that make you smile. That's how I deal with my sadness...
