Thoughts On Thursday

It's a gloomy rainy day here is Southern Ontario.
The winds were bad through the night and the temperatures hovered around 46.
It's a sad day here. We are saying goodbye to a dear and long friend.
John was taken by Cancer last Saturday.  Only 64 years old.
John was a jokester. He always greeted you with a joke. He knew how to make you laugh.
Never once through his suffering did he complain of any hurt.
But you could see it in his eyes.
His wife is my best friend and I know how lonely and lost she is going to feel in the weeks to come.
We were watching a video of John last night and there were pictures of him in this safari hat
that he had worn on a trip to Disney  this past winter. He reminded us of Jackie Gleason in Smokey and the Bandit. He was just like Jackie. So funny.
You are in our hearts and prayers Sue and John. John you will never be forgotten.
Love you guys!!
Linda
