Damn ... Another very good friend just died

Post by Pepi »

:cry:

My best man at my wedding 44 years ago :cry: Died of a mass of blood clots in his lungs. He just got out of the hospital a week ago with inflammation around his heart. :(

Prayers for his family and SWEET wife also my wife's bridesmaid at our wedding.
