Iam completely empty inside in regards to our fallen brother, Rich. I still cannot get over how one day, he was here and full of life and now today it's a different world altogether. Great post, Rita; he will always be here in spirit. One day, we'll all get together again.
Amen, Scotty!

And I don't doubt we will all be laughing at you still
chasing around Mrs. TopSpeed. ;)
God bless you, Rita. You never cease to bring a smile to my face. :D

Wow, cwb, that's an incredible story and a testament to His love. I, too, was in a car accident in '01 that I shouldn't have walked away from; miracles happen everyday around us, sometimes without us noticing really.

Okay, now that is 3 of us that I know of (CWB, TopSpeed, and myself) whom have had near-fatal accident, but for the Grace of God are here today. How many other Corvette and fast-car enthusiast share this blessing? Just wondering.

Take care, stay safe.

Well...now that you ask....Several occasions for me as well. in my casebeing stupid is a health risk. just didn't want to sound like a copy-cat so Idecided not to post.

I believe That any of us that have actually "lived life" have been there. I'll even wager that most all have been there and not even known it while they were. I remember once when I was a kid standing at the edge of a 1100+foot cliff, leaning out looking over the edge with the updraft almost holding me up. If that updraft had lessened or decided to change direction I wouldn't be here typing this right now. At the time I wasn't even smart enough to think about it. Granted that one is not as dramatic as walking away from some of the auto accidents I have been involved inbut my point is this...How many times have you been onedecision away from death and destruction without knowing it? Every day we wake up breathing, our human luck gets that much more stretched. Thank the Creator for Guardian Angles.Enjoy and live life each day with your loved ones as if it could be the last. Have as much fun and love as you can without worryingabout it, Don't sweat the small stuff.After all...Life is for living. Don't get me wrong, I'm not afraid of death, 'cause that trip is gonna be wild, but I still have a lot of stuff I want to do in this life first. Cheers.

In Our dear friend Rich's case as in any other, there were perhaps two ill fated decisions made that lead to the fatal meeting of the two lives. They both took just a fraction of a second to make and set the two fates. Perhaps just alingering footon the break pedala few hundred yards earlier or if a stop light had taken a few seconds longer to change green somewhere along their routes, the two lives may have passed each other without incident. Just goes to show how every decision we make may have some effect on a total strangers life. It blows your mind if you think too hard on it. But like they say..."You never know". Cheers.

I recently heard from his wife and Rich is out of the coma and getting better day-by-day..This is truly a miracle. He still has a long way to go, so all prayers are greatly appreciated. Thanks for asking. FYI -There is another post out there with updated info.

Take care. Stay safe.

Hey, Luke!
How you be? No, sorry to say, I have not heard a word. I think Rich has a long way to go and maybe we are a reminder of just how much he does not remember, and perhaps that has acounter productive affect. I will keep everyone in the loop if I hear from Rich and Starla.

Thanks for caring.
Take care.

Hi, Everyone!
Sorry, it has taken so long for me to reply. My husband has been real sick, so I haven't had much time to surf.

No, I haven't heard anything from Starla, but will always forward any news I receive.

Hope all is well with all the great people here on the Forum, especially the heart and soul of this place . . .

Hey Little Sis, We been missin' ya around here. Glad to hear from you. Sorry to hear the hubby's under the weather, Give him our best and hope he gets to feelin' better. Thanks for keepin' us up to date on brother Rich, hope he's getting on well. I sent another Email through here but I fear Starla may not get them. It would be great to hear that Rich is up and runnin'. They stay in our prayers, as do you.

Stay safe and stay well. God bless. Cheers

Well, Sir, I must respectfully disagree with you on that, but just goes to show you are staying true to the dear heart I know you to be. My husband is doing better, thank you, and I too would love to hear from Starla and Rich. We will just keep praying.

Take care. Stay safe.

Well I guess everyone is entitled to their opinion, LOL! :DI'm used to women disagreeing with me, my wife does it all the time....Still doesn't make it so, LOL! :D

Take your Husband for a screamin' ride in that silver chariot of yours and the rush will fix 'im right up. Nothin' like the smell of burnin' rubber and a seat of the breaches ride to get the blood flowin'

Stay sweet Little Sister.

blueshark 02-19-2008 07:43 PM

RE: Merry Christmas from GoRichB
 
She's assigned to a MP unit and was out about2 months ago and broke her foot during a skirmish. Two others were wounded but not fatal thank God. She's back at it and she actually said she loves her job, except for the being shot at part. She said her units Sharpshooter took out the bad guys that were shooting at them. She's got 7 months left over there. My hair gets grayer by the minute just thinkin' about it. Thanks for asking and for the prayers brother.

Hope Starla replies to ya soon RJ, need some good news.

I'm just gonna ignore those other comments....that's what I do when my wife disagrees with me. works well and I gettin' reeeallly good at it, LOL! [sm=smiley24.gif]do da doooo, ...huh?....of course,....she has her story.....but I have the truth...LOL! LOL!:D

Dave,
You are right on with these thoughts. I didn't realize George's daughter was in harm's way. Will definitely be including her in my prayers.

Yup, we are all family around here for sure.

Thanks Sis, she's in Baghdad with all the other younguns over there in harms way. I guess like all the families with folks over there, every time I hear about a bomb going off or one of our Armed Service personnel being shot I get a huge lump in my throat and hold my breath a little more than usual. God bless them all Great and Small. Cheers

rjensen 02-20-2008 02:24 PM

RE: Latest news on GoRichB
 
That has got to be tough.

I ask the Lord to keep them all close to His Heart and safe in His Love and ask the same for all their families and loved ones, too.

I read a quote yesterday that said, "If you are not willing to stand behind our troops, please feel free to stand in front of them."

God Bless them all.
