That old farmer is strong and stubborn, and still hangin' on. Lots of visits from family and friends haven't seen in a while.
It may be cliché, but why can't folks visit one another more often when everyone's doing ok? Would love to see 'em if under better circumstances.

I agree, it seems like you never see extended family when everyone is healthy....

IMHO....it is the difference between true Love and Care, and Obligation. Words are cheap, but Actions reveal the Truth.
I don't care to go to a funeral, I think they are a waste and a rip-off. I have donated my body to the Medical school in Jackson, Ms. I have told Joyce that when I do go, just tell those that stay in touch. I didn't matter before, so I shouldn't matter then either.....just wanna be here today and gone tomorrow. I guess that is one of the reasons people don't hang around me, because I can't stand the fakey "Care About You" routine. They have no desire to "Face" reality and continue to drink the kool aid and lick the lollipops. I have come to realize that those that fall by the wayside aren't worth keeping in one's life.....they only lie....and when the relationship rests solely on your shoulders to maintain contact, it is nothing but a burden and one way street. I have better things to do than waste time on one that is Clueless.

I wanna throw out a tribute to the best man I know. James David went to be with the Lord abt a quarter til 8pm last night on June 1st.
He always considered himself to be a plain farmer, but he was more than humble. He was intelligent, and could draw out and build anything involving carpentry.
He was a good husband to Mom and good Dad to my sister and me. He didn't teach us abt the Lord, he showed us. He always lived his Faith, and managed through life anticipating to hear, "Well done thy good and faithful servant."
Thanks for your recent support and prayers!

Thanks a lot. Ready to move on into the next chapter of making sure Mom does ok now on her own. She managed household, bills, and Dad for last 3 yrs, but I am trying to knock out maintenance issues and prev. maint., as well as anticipate upcoming needs. She has a handyman, but for some reason it didn't concern me while Dad was alive.
