Heard Brantley Gilbert's One He!! Of an Amen earlier. The lyrics made me think of you...
'No, a little cancer can't break me. My heart's right & I believe'

Re: The beginning of the end for yours truly
I am hardly ever in here anymore but thanks to an update I saw in your FB group I was alerted that you posted here...Wino you know wrote: ↑January 19, 2021 2:11 pm
Well, everyone- I hope this isn’t my final update, but I’m currently at the hospital, feeling very tired, nauseous, weak, and a lot of difficulty speaking. No appetite whatsoever. I know this can’t go on much longer. It’s clearly evident I won’t see any of you again. I’m fading. But, if I haven’t said it already, you *ALL* need to know how special you are to me and always have been, and you all need to know the love I have for *ALL* of you will go with me to my grave and into eternity.
It’s been a joy.
So... please know I am sending my LOVE to you Garry...
You have added SO much to my life and I just had to stop in here to tell you... it is YOU who are special!!!
And I continue to pray for you each and every night.
In Boston with...

Re: The beginning of the end for yours truly
I haven't posted here in ages but saw the update on FB. Buddy, fellow Yankees fan, etc. The world will not be the same without you. I can only hope that this is a temporary set back and we will soon be in a parking lot somewhere before a Bubba show. If not know that you are loved and we will NEVER forget you. Worst case have the blender fired up when I see you again up in the giant parking lot in the sky to talk Buffett or how much the Sox s*** or any other stupid topic we can come up with.
Luv ya Bud!

Re: The beginning of the end for yours truly
I echo the sentiments of everyone else but I have to add one thing. When (if?) Buffett goes back on the road and we all start traveling again, who am I going to go to Hooters with?
what I really mean . . . I wish you were here

Re: The beginning of the end for yours truly
so much love heading to you from Michigan. You have always been one of the stalwarts of BN and my Parrothead journey. Our paths never crossed in person but I always have loved the stories that have become part of my Buffett life and love. May you find peace in a life well lived and people well loved. You are so loved here--not only for your passion for Buffett and the life style but also for your wonderful spirit, grace, and genuine love for others.SMLCHNG wrote: ↑January 20, 2021 11:02 pmSimple, and well said, Bill.bodypainter wrote: ↑January 20, 2021 6:37 pm Garry, I am honored to share part of this adventure called life with you.

We are here to love and guide you to Connie and those who are waiting, if that is God's Will. We continue to pray for your strength; both emotionally and physically. We pray for peace and restful sleep and moments of joy and continued positive thoughts.
M3 Garry. So very much M3 for you.
