My wife and kids need some cyber hugs and thoughts/prayers right now (okay, me too, but I'm a big strong firefighter and will never admit it). My wife's father died unexpectedly tonight about 10:30 pm. I have cancelled my Atlanta trip and am taking the next few days off from work to get things sorted. I know you guys will be sending good thoughts and/or prayers. My daughters are really going to miss Grandpa Bill. I haven't figured out how to tell them quite yet. My wife was Bill's only child and is taking it very hard (understandably). I have just got her to bed now. It's almost 3 am. I have to meet a colleague at 6:30 to let him know that he's going to Atlanta by himself, I might as well stay up at this point.
Okay guys, catch you later.
Ian

Oh, man.....hang in there....
that is some hard news to hear.....I feel for your family, I hope..well, I know, you will all pull together, but man, that is sad news....keep up whatever strength you've got, we're all pulling for you and your family....
well, I had a two hour talk tonight with my 90 year old grandma, and the gist of it was that we both believed in our own way of an afterlife....I think that even though Bill is gone physically he will remain connected with your wife and your family, which can be a good thing to think of amidst your loss....just my own idea, offered up....
Peace, stay strong, but let it out when you need to.....

My heart goes out to your wife, and to you and your whole family. A death in the family is always so painful for those left behind. There are no words, as I know very well, but here are some ((((hugs)))) and prayers coming your way. Cheryl Dogs believe in long term relationships
