Tom,
With deepest sympathy for the loss of your "Pappy" May the sadness your feeling be comforted by the many great memories that live on in your heart.

Very, very sorry to hear about your loss.

It' s obvious that this great man left an indelible impression on your life and his values and moral compass are living on through you. Heros like Pappy are unfortunately a rare breed, so you are a lucky man indeed to have learned life's lessons from him.

Take care and be strong.

So sorry to hear, Tom. I have a deep soft spot in my heart for vets, and he sounds like he was quite exceptional. I remember losing my grandmother and having the same kind of feelings. I hope that you eventually come to the point I did, when I was able to instead of lamenting the loss, to rejoice that she had been there for so long.

Very sorry to hear brother... I was very close to my grandpa too growing up so close to him so I know your pain. You are a religious guy, so as hard as it is right now, just think positive thoughts knowing he is with his wife again in peace...
