Gone For A Few Days

I am being called to go out of town for a few days, maybe a week or so. My dear uncle, great-uncle actually, is at the end of his grand and long life. It's looking like just days left. So, I'll be heading to my childhood hometown in a day or so, help take care of things there for a little while.

He'll be missed a lot because he is loved a lot! It has been said that the one thing that will walk away from the grave is the character of a man. His essence. And that is what we will always have of this dear, sweet man.

Goodbye, Uncle! Thank you for all you've done, for all you've given me, for all you have been to me!
