OT: an unexpected death in the family
I wanted to let all my friends here know that my father, Earl Peeples, died this morning at about noon.
He was leaving the grocery store when whatever happened happened. His last action was to steer his car onto a grassy embankment where he wouldn't cause anyone else to be harmed. The emergency room physician felt he had either a massive stroke or a heart attack and did not suffer.
He will be greatly missed.

Aw, Jim, I'm so sorry to hear that, that's really tough. I'd give ya a hug if I weren't miles away...

- Tell us something.: Long ago, I was told that I faked iTrad whistle work very well. I took that comment to heart. 20 years of private lessons - and many, many hours of rehearsal later - I certainly hope I have improved...

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. I posted a msg here when my dad died a couple of years ago. It's an indication of the sense of community that it seems right to do so. I'll play an air for him.

I am so sorry.
Jim, I am so sorry to hear of your loss. My father passed away when I was 20 and it is a great loss to lose a parent. They are such a part of us and always will be. I keep mine alive in my heart by thinking of all the good times we had together. I am me because of him and I keep seeing him in me and my children. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
