Just found out a friend died

#1 Postby JenBayles » Mon Dec 06, 2004 7:55 pm

I'm just a tad messed up right now. Just found out a friend of many many years died in his sleep Friday night. He was 47 and just went to bed, didn't mention anything out of the ordinary, and died. If anybody out there likes gin, please raise a gin, tonic and OJ (GTO) to Jim Posway - fisherman extraordinaire - salud. If not gin, prayers for his wife, Ann, are in order. Thanks.
Jen

Not gin and tonic, but I will raise whatever I'm drinking to your friend and my deepest sympathies go out to his family and friends ...

Thanks everyone. I really appreciate the toasts and the prayers. Jim was an oil & gas revenue accountant for Enron, and well...... he was basically wiped out financially when that whole mess hit the fan. I don't believe subsequent employment provided life insurance so I just hope and pray his wife will be OK in that respect. Dave and I will do whatever we can to help. <sigh>
