while on my way back from denver, i stopped at my sisters in KS KS, and got the call, from my wife. my father in law, had a heart attack , in california, and passed away, with her mother on his side. tuesday night.
its just awful....he was 53, and retired farmer, and a just had 80k put into his custom semi. and were out on a run....
he was more like a brother/best friend,drinking partner you name it, he was it!
and was the best PA PA, to my 20 month old daughter.. this sucks,, my wife flew out yesterday to california, and will arrive in about 2 hours, here at 3:20.. i spent 11 hours driving home yesterday,, and ran out of tears. i was just dehidrated.. he was the rock, of his family, just a year or so ago they lost his parents, a really shame this has happened. he comes from a town with like 4 big familys, he was the light and star of his...and of the town...
He drove all night from california, when my wife gave birth 6 weeks early, to be there, for us.... this man was 6'4 and held my 4 lb 13 once little girl, with most gentlest touch. he told me later that day,, that,
" you start pounding post are you?"
i was like what are you talking about??
he said" you know when sophia looks up at me with those big brown eyes, and says PA PA, can i have a pony,, you'll have a pony real quick.."""
she love'd honking his big rigs horn.. while sitting on his lap.
i trade everthing i have to have him back. even my life for his, as i'll never be half the man he was. this is just a shame. no good from this , his favorite hero was john wayne, both were legends, both passed away with there boots on.. i can only say, what tim mcgraw's songs says," live life like you were dying", because you will never know when its it's your turn.. god bless and call your family and tell them you love them..
sorry to post this, its just going to be really bad, as we take her home, and many will be there..its just her, the big house, barn, semi, and she's the sweetest mother/ mother in law.. and now she's alone. this sucks with a big f in front of it...jeff chester-ohio
