I had a very upsetting text message from GE (GuitarsExtreme) on Thursday night. I talked to him today when I got to my hotel. It seems that within the last week to 10 days, he has lost both his father and his youngest brother. Dad was working in the yard on a hot and steamy day in NC and sat down. He never got back up. He was 89. His youngest brother was diabetic and he was complaining of really bad "indigestion" pain in his chest and didn't get it checked out. 

So please keep GE and his family in your thoughts and prayers. This has hit him and his family really hard in the span of less than 2 weeks.

Here is the obituary for his dad. I have not found one for his brother yet.

So sorry to hear of your losses.  Simply can't imagine.  Was with Frosty when he got your text.  You N yours are in the thoughts N prayers.  

Sorry to hear that, GE. Thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. 

Wow, sorry to hear it.   Things will get better.

Rick

 

GE, my sincere condolences! You & your loved ones are truly in my thoughts & prayers. Stay strong & know you will all be together again, in a better time & place.
