sorry for your loss. this virus is truly evil.






Rick Rowe (as aleays) did a good job on their story. silver lining is you can share with your grandkids that story and show them how sweet and loving they were

Terrible circumstances all the way around, my heart goes out to you. Be the stone your family can lean on. It sounds like they’ll need a constant more than ever. Your family will surely be in my thoughts over the coming days.

Oh man, teared up on that one. Only knew 1 grandma. Never knew the grandfathers. That's something special there. So sorry for your loss. Hang on to those precious memories.

I’m saddened by your story. I hope you and your family can get through this tough time. I also have a hate for the Chinese, because they caused all this

Man you know what pisses me off about all this. It's the fact all this could have been avoided had some slimy Chinese shite not eaten bat or pangloin. Just think, that one little shite that started all this ruined the lives of millions.

I’m sorry that your family has to deal with so much loss, especially your mom, in such a short time. I can’t even imagine what that’s like. Do whatever you can to comfort her.

Congratulations on the baby news, though.

Thanks for all the prayers and well-wishes baws and bawettes.

My grandfather’s first LSU football game was 1943 against I believe Georgia. His last LSU football game was 2019 Florida. Both wins.

He transferred the season tix to my dad whenever he couldn’t really go and enjoy himself as he used to. However, we treated him like a king the one or two times he’d come the last few seasons. Florida game this year was no different. We were passing around a couple flasks of bourbon with him. He was a scotch guy and I don’t think his stomach was very pleased with him for the bourbon the next day. He said his shoulders were sore from my dad and I patting his shoulders for every good play. There were a lot in that game.

He bookended his LSU fandom with wins and got a Natty to ride out in.

Beautiful and touching video tribute of your grandparents, a memory to cherish forever, kudos to the reporter for giving you this to share with your own children someday.

I'm a grandfather and assure you that towards the end when they were able to, they fondly thought about their deep love and affection for you and yes, sadness in not being able to see you, mom and her brother. But, their grandson's obvious love, respect and concern gave them a special kind of joy and hopefully some comfort.

I am sorry for your loss of these two wonderful people in your life, and pray for God's blessings for you and your family.
