Once Ahead Of His Time — His Time Is Gone

My day began early this morning with the news of my father’s passing. It wasn’t unexpected, as he’s been in poor health for quite some time. He was just a few weeks short of 79.

Most men are blessed if they can look back on a successful career. He had three. He was a minister — the owner and partner of two real estate firms — and finally an attorney.

And now he’s gone.

I’ll return tomorrow.

    Just as you noted Jeff, it’s much better to celebrate someones life then to mope in sorrow over their death.

    There is nothing better then having been proud and admiring of someone who has passed away!

    He’s in the best real estate position now as I’m sure he owns a seat next to our Father.
