Fluffy Pancakes User ID: 77983901 United States 09/06/2019 06:43 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Fred passed last night at 10pm Mountain time. Quoting: Fluffy Pancakes What a tremendous man. Praying for his family. Thank you, Fluffy Pancakes. May I ask how you learned of his passing? Again, thanks. We shared a few PM's and he asked iif I'd like to be on the notification list for when he passed. His granddaughter was doing that for him. So I gave him mmy email and received the notification this morning. He has an awesome family and wife. They reflect him. In my opinion, what he shared with us was a very real, raw, private and poignant thing. Incredible strength oof character to do that...here especially. Things are bad enough, there is no need to make anything up. ~Fluffy "Never interrupt an enemy in the process of destroying himself." Quercitin and zinc...Get it. Take it.

Quoting: Far Away Initially I wished I had found the thread before this moment, but those who were supposed to find it sooner, did. I'm going to go now and hug a bunch of people I love. Beautiful song that David Gates wrote about his father's passing as you may know. Most people think it's about a girl. Fred was a brave intelligent man, he faced his mortality with courage, introspection and love. My father just passed on the 233rd so this all hits home. We had a short conversation on the day he passed after he was unconscious all day. I got to say my peace and thanks and I'll never forget it. RIP Fred and Dewey. |

I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow. I am the diamond glints on snow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain. I am the gentle autumn rain. When you awaken in the morning's hush I am the swift uplifting rush Of quiet birds in circled flight. I am the soft stars that shine at night. Do not stand at my grave and cry; I am not there. I did not die ^^^^This is so beautiful and true. Until we meet again. Peace for Fred. A brave, lovely soul. I hope I can go with as much grace as he showed us all. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 77846190 United States 09/06/2019 08:36 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I have to say that I really do miss Fred. We had email counts in excess of 100 a day. Oh my.....this is starting to really hurt. My heart is with his family and his wife. I feel lonely right now. I can't tell him how his thread has blown up or anything else going on. When I say this was an intense friendship, it was in every friendship aspect you can think of. I feel very empty right now. I'm sorry for the selfishness. I had to get this off my chest. I knew I would lose it at some point. It's happening now. I started a garden with just a little enthusiasm. When he came along, he really lit a fire under me. I would like to share these pictures. I took barren grass and made a little heaven on Earth. It was part of our bond. He sent me a trio of flamingos for our garden. What's Florida without flamingos? LOL It is so special to me and I now have a permanent reminder of a beautiful soul. He is very much part and parcel of it. I don't know how to post them. Without him, I would not have had such a stunning strip of color, beauty, and peacefulness. He encouraged me to work hard so I knew he would have something to look forward to during his boredom or bed rest. This garden was for him and I named it Fred. I worked very hard with my disability to bring him some joy. I had recently moved from a mountain state to a tropical environment. All very new to me. My lot was so bland before. He appreciated beauty so much. Awe, man. |

I believe Fred thread has been all about `talking out aloud`, Its an `Elephant in the room` that has a spot light shone on something that is all too often considered dark. I also Believe Fred Has changed many peoples views on their own journey`s, and has made it a less frightening path. I hope his legacy continues on this thread and is a shining light on their own paths. Rest in Peace Fred, you truly have made a difference here and will continue to do so.

Ohio chic User ID: 74381676 United States 09/07/2019 08:23 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | As a nurse, I have seen hospice in action and I believe everyone should have someone by their side when they pass. Dying alone is the worst fear of my life. I’ve had patients on hospice for 10 years. They would get better and “graduate” off of hospice and then get worse again and go back on. Medicare covers hospice. Well most do and it saves the patient on a lot of out of pocket expenses too. People are so misconceived about hospice and they are only screwing themselves by not using it. NO! My name is NOT spelled wrong. Grab a dictionary. Peace, Love & Prayers God bless America And YES. I am a nurse! SIDE NOTE- I find articles everywhere and post what I think GLP would like to know. I do not necessarily believe or endorse some articles I find. So do not bash the messenger |
