The White Hats don't always win

Hello Good readers,

At 12:45 Saturday afternoon I got a call from Jeff. He called to tell me his father had just died. By just died, I mean the police hadn't left the house by the time I got there half an hour later. For those not in the loop, Jeff is one of my closest friends. I considered his father a friend. Jim Vaughn never had an obligation ( Read more... )

I'm so sorry. I'll say a prayer for you and his family.

*hugs* to you and Jeff.

I gave Jeff a hug and a butt squeeze from you. Wait.... did I tell him it was from you? Maybe that's why he doesn't answer the phone......

I'm so sorry. Sending best wishes for peace and the least painful way possible through the grieving process for all of you. He sounds like he was truly a fine gentleman....he and those he touched will be in our prayers.

Thank you. He was truly a gentleman and a gentle man. His absence will be keenly felt by those that knew him.

How lucky you are to have known him. When someone leaves us I am inclined to think of their life as a gift. Wouldn't we all like to think that the world is a better place because we contributed? Jeff is lucky to have a friend who responded so quickly when he needed you. You are lucky to have friends you care deeply about. And Jim Vaughn was lucky to have a son who loves him and a friend who remembers him with love.

I sent comforting vibes your way all weekend. Hope the hurt is better.
