Are you okay?
I haven't seen a post from you in at least two days. Very unusual. Maybe I just missed them?

Pete hasn't posted in almost 2 months, less than 20 posts all year, and he's still #7 on the top-poster list... 
Sorry to hear about AR's uncle.

I'm fine, just doing the family thing. Unfortunatly nothing punny this time Barry
.
My uncle didn't make it. He suffered 2 strokes, went into a coma, came out of the coma, was doing quite well then his kidney's shut down, and he slipped back into the coma. The cat scan revealed that he had ceased to be my uncle by that time. My aunt took him off life support May 4th, he died on the 6th. My mother *just* made it there in time to say her good bye's.
He was the biggest man I ever knew, alway's quiet, never yelled ( that use to scare me more that anything when I was a kid ). He always gave you the bump in the right direction in life, even if you didn't realize he had done it 'till year's later. He was a fisherman, a hunter, a trapper and a gentle-man. He loved the out door's. He took good care of his family, he never complained, and always had a kind word and a friendly greeting. He died at the age of 70. A few years too early, and so very suddenly. He is sadly missed.

Hats off to your Uncle. If the world was full of more men like him we would all be better for it. In the end all we get are the memories we leave behind with the living, and it sounds like your Uncle left this world a better place. No greater legacy I can think of. Sorry for your loss.

Reminds me a quote from, I believe, Samuel Clemens, "When I was 14 I could not believe how little my father knew, when I was 21 I couldn't believe how much he had learned in the last seven years."
Sorry for your loss.

Very sorry to hear about your uncle. I had an uncle (my father's brother-in-law) who was a really great guy. My father and he and grew up together, so they knew each other for over 50 years. Very quiet, quick to laugh, a good father, and worked very hard all his life. He loved hunting, and just a year or two after retirement he and my father were deer hunting in east texas. They were sleeping in the trailer they had kept at the deer lease, and when my father got up in the morning, he discovered my uncle had passed on in his sleep of a heart attack. At least he seemed to have passed quitely in his sleep, doing what he loved most, but I wished he had more time to enjoy his retirement after all those years working to raise a family.

Bummer. Very sad to hear of your loss. It sounds like you have great memories of him, and that's a good thing.
He sounds like a person that our world could a lot more of these days.
God Bless.
