Popular Post Charlie Brown Posted July 22, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 22, 2021 I for one attach football to my youth, hence my moniker Charlie Brown. That is before my mother passed from lung cancer and my father whom I live with was bigger than life, who was/is my hero and he wasn't, as he is now battling dementia.... It is news like this that reminds me what is important in my life and thankful to all of you for being here..... Rest In Peace Coach..... 15 2 4 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maynard13 Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 Very sad Life is so fragile. Nothing is promised. Have lost many close friends and both parents in past few years. It’s definitely hit me hard and definitely feel I’ve lost parts of my life. All I can do is understand my life and person is better for having known them and having them been in my life. They never really leave. As Keanu Reeves said ‘ Im sure they miss us’. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
