I’m seriously going to miss this place. Like a lot. I know there’s DriveTribe and Discord, and Mastadon, but they won’t be the same. This week has been hard.
Earlier this week I got a call that my uncle unexpectedly passed away. His wife (my aunt) passed away a year or two back from dementia. Earlier this year, just before the pandemic hit he was able to go on a trip to Tahiti with his daughter and son-in law. He had served a mission there for our church, and had only been back one other time. It seems like he really enjoyed his trip.
He didn’t show up for work two days in a row so they called my cousin, who found him. It sounds like he went in his sleep, which is probably the best way to go.
I won’t forget the time, back when I was in university that he randomly called me up to go flying with him. He had is pilot’s license, and rented a plane for an hour or so.
I might even say I’m going to miss this place even more.
