God Speed Johnny

At 3:45pm today our father Johnny Giesbrecht at last set down the burdens of this world and went on to that great adventure which awaits us all. He was surrounded by his loving wife and children and was in no pain. We're all grieving here but you needed to know Johnny to understand why that grief comes with a silver lining. Though dad was often a sombre man he was never one to dwell in grief. His humor and stick-to-it-ness support us even now. Dad often said "Take care of your job & the rest of your life will take care of itself." and with that we should all get back to the business of living.

So sorry for your loss, and sorry my sentiments are so late!

That's alright, sweetie. Life keeps us busy, doesn't it? Glad you're still hangin' out with me in the blogosphere, so many have been swept up by twitter & facebook and don't even blog anymore.
