Which person in your life time (non parents or siblings) do you look up to the most, and what did they do for you to make you have such an appreciation for them?

Mine would be my great uncle. He treated everyone with tons of love and respect. Always called family and non family members just to talk. Would visit people all over the place, even visit in prisons. He showed up for everything too. He was a very godly man who knew no hate. Don't think I will ever meet someone as sweet as him the rest of my life.

My grandmother. She was a nurse for over 40 years and was the matriarch of our family. She's been gone almost 4 years now and I still miss her terribly. She is the reason I became a nurse. I always respected how she did whatever it took to care for members of our family and her love for animals. Also respected that her and my grandfather were of different denominations(her Catholic, him Baptist), but they were married almost 60 years, loved each other very much, and still stayed true to their individual faiths.

My great uncle Buddy (grandmother's brother). He is a Korean & Vietnam Vet. He served 23 years in the Army in a couple of Airborne divisions. He also did some time cleaning up down in the Dominican republic. Love his war stories.

He has also taught me just about everything I know about fishing. He's a great man. I've learned a lot from him. I'll cry like a baby when he finally passes away. My grandmother always said Buddy was too mean to die.

Unfortunately I don't have the $9m to buy the house, but I will definitely put some money towards that. That's pretty awesome. Thanks for bringing my attention to it. FZ's work and art needs to be saved for future generations. There's probably more music in that vault than I could ever completely listen to.

I guess it makes sense that this is happening now with Gail passing away a few months ago. I didn't even put it together at the time. I think I remember hearing that she had a reputation of being pretty tight and shrewd with Frank's music and rights. Suing cover bands and such.
