The Passing of Perc-o-Prince's (Rich's) Grandfather

Rich and Chuck

Your family will be in my prayers.

I loved the stories you share of your grandfather. It brought back some wonderful memories of my grandmother.

Loosing someone is never easy but you and Chuck will be surprised how your grandfathers love will show up when you least expect it... something our God has a way of sharing through his spirit. It may not be obvious to any one but the two of you but someday someone will say or do something that you will know comes from the love of your grandfather...

You both take care and know that our prayers are with you both.

Morgan

I want to thank everyone...

who sent their support and best wishes during this difficult time!

We(Chuck and I) are warmly overwhelmed by the wonderful friendships that we have developed here. Several of you were able to come to the wake/funeral and extend your condolences in person. Many wrote to us as well as phoned to offer support. All of this deeply touched my entire family. After my mother "held court" in the kitchen with "the boys" she commented about what a great bunch of friends we had. Thank you to all of you. We're proud to know such a caring bunch of people and this has been a great comfort to both of us during the difficult moments. THANK YOU!!!

YES the snow storm did hit us. It began just hours before the wake and when we returned home we had a good 5" of snow in the driveway. The person who offered to plow out our 100+ foot driveway never showed up. I was able to catch my cousin who was able to clear us out by 11:30pm. When we got up the next morning we were again snowed/iced in with a limo due to pick us up in an hour and a half. Once again my cousin had to come to our rescue since the other person, again, didn't show up to make good on his word. We all managed to make it on time and the rest of the day went off with out a hitch! My grandfather was a practical joker, in life, so we all suspect that this was his one last HOORAH!

Our lives are getting back to "normal" and I look forward to participating more on this forum

Again....a heart felt thanks!!!

Rich and Chuck
