Heavy heart this morning.

[RidgeRunner]

Lost another good man yesterday to cancer. My Uncle Don passed after a 3 month stint with hospice. Noone can explain to me the needless suffering that this man had to endure. He fought the good fight.
A more witty man I have never met. He is an inspiration to all that knew him. Salesman, soldier, woodsmith, mentor, father, husband, friend. He was kind and caring, we will miss him.. A small bit of guilt goes along with his passing because he lived in Atlanta and we could not be there in the end. Until hospice we would communicate via e-mails on occasion, just too many miles apart and everyone is busy with their immediate family/work. No regrets, he knew what he meant to me and he knew we loved him so, I made sure of that. Don Risteen RIP..
