navyshooterThis has been a really rough week........lost 2 friends
First is was Mac, I went to his funeral yesterday.
This morning Doug passed due to cancer.
Mac was a retired Master Chief that I worked with and I've know for quite a while.
Doug was a retired LDO Commander that got me my job after I retired.
Both were good men and good shipmates.
Damn.

Rey HRHSorry for your loss. But that's life. First we go to each other's weddings. Then children's birthday parties. Then children graduations. next thing you know, it's funerals.
Just be sure to go to all your friends' funerals otherwise they won't come to yours as Yogi Berra said.
"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946.

Ronin1069I am very sorry for your loss.
There are few people I consider to be "friends", losing one would be very difficult. Losing two in the same week? Devastating.
Prayers for comfort and healing to you, and to the lost's other friends and family.
