Title: To all Brodak Carrier guys/gals
Post by: Joe Just on June 07, 2013, 04:53:24 PM
Once again, after a whole year of hoping, I will not be able to attend the annual family get-to-gathering.  However, my plans are to order a set of Carrier DVD's immediatly after Father's day so I can see and tear up at what I missed.  God luck to all! God, how I miss you guys!

Well as usual things have gotten in the way.  I was truly planning on being there as I know Brodaks will not go on forever.   Had my practice flights in Tulsa and Wichita last year.   The old Bearcat was ready to go.  Also no fun fly at Salina today.   So you guys/gals have fun and make nothing but 100 point landings.

I know I can feel somewhat what you feel.  Was ready to go with several friends from up here in Mass. Planning to fly Carrier, P.A. Foxberg and Combat. Felt like a kid in a candy store. April 17th, had a stroke. Lucky to be here. Just a small one. My right hand is coming back quickly and probably start flying soon but I'll need an electric starter for now.
There is always next year. My heart is broken in disappointment.
Just 2 days before, was panning to take my wife and kids to the Boston marathon... The rest is history. Life is very peculiar sometimes...
A rude awakening about my health and others.

A thought for all of us.

We are a special group of people, fading away unless we pass on the qualities of having our concepts. Some here may argue, involve in name-calling, etc. All the situations that we see once in a while at this site. However, I truly believe that anyone would give all the help needed to keep another from dying.

Most of us, are 50-65+ yrs. (e curve anybody?) average. Many values that were taught to us by family, role models, etc. have changed. WE are ONE with same values.
I am changing my priorities radically with respect to my family, friends and others. Live and let live.  #^
I was given a second chance to realize what is important and what is trivial. In here, we mean well. WE ARE ALL GOOD GUYS!

I will be back...
