    Awesome Idea for those we've lost...

    "This might be going off topic....I'm into the fourth month of being 70....my thoughts about "the inevitable"....plan for it....make whatever arrangements are necessary...family members should know your wishes...write your own obit....get your estate in order...stop thinking about it and get on with your Marauder lovin' life!!!! With all due respect and compassion to those that have preceded us in death, R.I.P. No matter what your age, tomorrow may be the day for any of us."

    This is so true...Live life to the fullest. Limit regrets and "should have's", and let the people you care about know it. Now show me the love and give me your floor mats...

    I'm three months away from 71.

    Does it bother me? Of course. I'd much rather be 50, 40, 30 than 71.

    But, I still work on my Galaxie, still have drinks with buddies from grammar school, and still listen to old music.

    You can't stop THE clock; just enjoy the time you have.

    When I was a little kid, I used to tease my dad about the music (the 40's) he listened to.

    One day he said, "someday you'll be listening to old memories/music".

    Dad was correct.

    I listen to the 50's music (tough to really link the music with my life)

    60's; the greatest decade of my life; cars, girls, drive in movies, met my wife of 46 years

    70's; yeah, I remember, the 70's, but it was "work, work, work, advancement, etc".

    80's; kind of a "did it, done it", ain't getting any better

    90's; hanging on waiting for retirement

    00's; I'm one of my department's older guys; waiting for the axe to fall; 2007; axe fell, thank you, big corporation

    201X; retirement, fantastic

    2020: who knows??

    I just hope one of my daughters will keep my Galaxie, bring it to old car shows, and tell folks about their dad buying the car in 1969 and all the work he did on the car.

    I am sorry I missed this posting--in Jan of this year--2013--it is now --Nov, of 2013 and I don't think we have a separate forum for this--

    There have been a lot of special people who have been Marauder family here who have passed on-=-and this special forum is needed -=-now-- I would like all those who have sent info as stated earlier and new now to send it to the admins--btw--they should be listed in a header up front on the front page also--- anyway-- Mary--please work on this this weekend--Thanks--

    Update on this.

    I just bought his Marauder. He is still hanging on in a nursing home. Darla visits him just about every day. He can come off of the list.

    No, it's fine. I thought he had passed, too. The outlook was grim and I lost touch with his wife until last week.

    "In Memoriam....." forum

    The 2nd Anniversary of Rex's / SC Cheesehead's passing a couple days ago got me thinking about the members here that we have lost over the years. May all our departed brothers rest in peace. You may be gone but are not forgotten by your friends here at the MM.Net. Miss you Rex, Paul, Alex, Richard, Peter, Freda, Jim, Paula, David, Skotty, Steve, Bill and all of our too soon departed.
