Drink a beer for a World War ll Veteran, he lived a good life. Always said he'd make 100 and he did. He lived in a Missouri Veterans home for 11 years and up to two days before he still knew who I was and gave me a big smile!

Thanks for letting me post this, thought you guys should know.

I’m very sorry to hear this scrapdaddy. I hope you all are okay.

Sorry for your loss. I'll down a beer in his honor.

Thanks Guys, sad time, but happy for him. He told me last week that God was going to get him out of there. I wasn't sure exactly what he meant, but now I do. He was ready.

Sorry Ron wish I was closer and we could break into the good stuff together and sit by a camp fire while you told me stories about him. Headed to the kitchen to pick out something nice to pour over some ice in your honor.

Thanks Jim,

Short story about My Grandfather's good stuff. My Dad and Grandpa would share a shot when visiting and when Gramps died my Dad put the bottle up (early 1960s), I have that very bottle now and going to break it out the day we bury him. Hope it don't kill all of us!

 

[J Mack]

I will find a bottle of old Taylor for our next get together and we'll have our shot then.
For now I'm drinking the pig.
