I haven't been on lately, or put many miles since last July when I rode with Jax Eddie, but to all that know
us, I have to tell you that my lovely back seater of many years has passed away, Friday Feb 28th.
She had hoped to make it through November 6th.
She was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer 5 years ago, and was in remission for the last two.
Dr. called her a miracle.
Everything was going pretty well, and she awoke earlier Wednesday morning with trouble breathing,
rushed her by ambulance to E.R. but she never recovered.
She died peacefully, in her sleep, as she always wished to do. She wanted no funeral service, she chose cremation
and to have her ashes scattered on the beach (and she said "Not in the water."). I don't when that will happen.
So I sit here, going through my mind, what was the last thing I told her, when was the last time I kissed her...why is there
so much Hummus in the fridge?
Later. Chuck Photo taken at one of the FL Crew rallies in Ocala. Barbara won the poker game.
So Sorry Chuck! What a remarkable woman. I will never forget the times in the group room at the rallys. She just lit up the room with her kindness. You are a lucky man to have had her in your life.
