It’s Christmas Day!!!

[Thryleon]

I hope everyone had a terrific Christmas day and are looking forward to 'onward and upward' in 2021... especially at the good ship PP.

I waited til now as I didn't want to put a downer on everyone's Christmas but sadly my father passed away on Christmas Day, so it's been a Christmas tinged with sadness though he's now free of a body that was very unwell and extremely limiting - especially frustrating for him as he had all his mental faculties and was lucid and joking up until December 23rd. He deteriorated rapidly from then but I did get to spend quality time with him before the final few hours which were painless and quick.

Sorry for your loss baggers.

In the scheme of things, his timing wasnt too bad.  A few months earlier, and you wouldnt have gotten his final moments.  In a few months....  It might have been a similar or worse scenario.

Deepest sympathies to the family.  Its never easy to lose a loved one.  Its been about 15 years now since I last spent a xmas with my dad.  Understand the feeling and its never easier, you just harden yourself to the hurt after a little while.
