For those who know Classic Codger

MrsCodger

Hi,

For those who remember and communicated with Classic Codger and have wondered about his absence from the Forum since March this year.

I'm sorry to tell you, he hadn't really deserted any of you, he was actually having a serious debate with illness. Unfortunately, this debate did not end well and he sadly left us on Thursday, 23rd June 2016.

As his wife and on behalf of our family, I would dearly like to thank all of you who contributed to making him feel welcome and valued in this community. He spent many happy hours trying to offer guidance to those he related to and even more happy hours receiving the encouragement and support that was freely given by you all. For the most part, his life was certainly enriched knowing that he finally belonged somewhere.

I hope he has been missed here, he's certainly being missed at home.

Thank you all again, keep up the good unacknowledged work you all do.

  • Good old ClassicCodger. To hear the words that you've all written, shows me that my Dad made the same impretion on people here, that he did for so many of the people he had ever met and spoken with. It's truly humbling and comforting to know. You can be rest assured that everything that's heppened, has been on his terms and no-one else. mind over body.

    CC and I have had many discussions about my own state of mind and he's encouraged my to start keeping a diary. Have any of you got experience with that, i'm thinking mostly in terms of layout and content. I feel it important to have a structure, or else it'll just end up as almost unreadable mayhem.

    thanks
