Wow! That was really great, MuppetsRule!

And to Rich, I'm really sorry to hear about the passing of your father. He was a lot of fun on the boards and great to have posting here. May God grant you peace and comfort in this time of grief. :sympathy: :cry:
I also like John 14:1-4 and Psalm 121 for such times. Jesus is always watching us and never sleeps and if He goes to prepare a place for us, He will take us to be with Him too. :halo:

That is very true! We were fortunate that he did take the time to learn about this box in front of me. Something else I would like to point out about BHS is that he just recieved his Senior Membership. He was well deserving.

I think this is the third prominent member of MC in the last few years who has passed. Sadly before it was of very young people.
I actually thought this person was a grandmom, not a granddad, but I'm bad with guessing these things. I did not know how old they were, but nonetheless
it is always surreal when someone passes even on an online setting.
At 72, leaving behind songs, daughters and grand kids and being a very warm person I can call that a full life. This person's posts transcended age really, and always seemed to be a beacon of interesting stories, ideas and warmth.

BHS was many things to MC, some might have called him a liar, others may have called him annoying. One thing that was undeniable, he was always polite and classy. Some might say I'm disrespectful by pointing out the first part, but it's important to point out that even though BHS endured such negative blows, he stuck around and was always willing to wish us a Happy Birthday, or entertain us with news about his love of sports and Full House. He was truly a warm hearted spirit. I'll miss BHS, his random PMs to me asking what certain things meant that we posted on the board, his friendly demeanor in the way he posted that was so sweet, you could see his smile in every post. I will truly miss you BHS, and I just want to say how special you were to all of us. But I know that you're looking down from Heaven, still reading our posts and saying so warmly:

Sweet!:wink:
