  • D Dalek Dave

    He died at 1.15am this morning, peaceably and with loved ones beside him. The battle over, the cancer won eventually. I am sad, and yet somewhat relieved that his pain and suffering are at an end. I cannot help but smile when I think of him, he provided may episodes of mirth and hilarity throughout my life and now he is gone, but never to be forgotten by those he leaves behind. I shall miss him. Thanks for letting me go on about him, it is a kind of catharsis. PS. I will be in absentia on Thursday and Friday, so those who partake of the CCC will have to rely on the ministrations of my as yet unappointed deputy.

    I've been there. Remember him for the happy moments and be happy that the suffering is over.

                Sorry to hear Dave but as you say his suffering is over. :rose: I lost mine many years ago but still think of him and smile.

                Don't argue with an idiot; people watching may not be able to tell the difference.

                    You are incredibly lucky to have had such a great man as your grandfather, and even luckier to have had your whole life to know him. Many people don't have that opportunity, so that's pretty awesome.

                      Just read about this as I do not regularly visit Lounge. Felt sorry about it. Apologies, if any mistake in my post as I am not very regular on Lounge. :rose:
