Tough day
RIP to my father-in-law Nick, an avid striper fisherman. You cheated the doctors by refusing their surgeries and out lived a few of them as well. You saw one grandson become a lawyer and the other an environmental scientist and father. You held your great granddaughter 15 years after the doctors told you that you needed their surgeries to live. You refused their orders and showed them your resilience, your fortitude. You watched your granddaughters grow to become successful women and your family grow and prosper.
Hats off to you! May you enjoy your blackberry brandy while fishing the calm waters above.
Till we meet on gods seas sometime in the future, save a few fish (and a shooter) for me and rest peacefully.
