Dedicated to an Amazing Man
« on: November 10, 2011, 06:00:25 PM »
Most of you know me as BeholderSlayer from the previous board, but this was my handle at 339 and I decided to go  back to it.

I don't know how many of you are sports fans, but a big man from NBA history passed away this week. More importantly to me, the man was my grandfather: Easy Ed Macauley. He meant the world to me, and was the best grandfather a person could ever ask for. A true man for others, nobody could ever ask for a better role model.

I am not asking for sympathy. He died for the love of his late wife; he did everything in his power to join her after she passed in May. He is with her now, and this is a time for celebration.

"When you are not practicing, remember, someone somewhere is practicing, and when you meet him he will win."
- Ed Macauley

Raising a glass to him as I type this.  Cheers for a long life well lived.
