vulrathMy grandfather died last night.
Perfect punctuation on a shitty week.
Somewhere between 0030 and 0200 last night he slipped peacefully in his sleep.
He was an Air Force vet, working as an engineer building schools in Korea, then as an engineer for Johnson & Johnson.
At least he and my grandmother are finally back together.

"Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24 January 14, 2022, 06:24 AM
