What's this?

Yeah..it is amazing how often thet will happen. My mom's doctor->

even mentioned it to me when she died (93). I told him my dad was strong & healthy as a horse. Their Doc agreed that at his physical a month prior, Fred the Marine was the healthiest man in the building!

My dad was dead in 5 weeks...He was broken hearted and ready to be with my mom. It happens a lot (ESPECIALLY with men following their wives).

It always pays to appreciate them while you have them!
