I'm feeling pretty sad today. We just found out my wife's father was killed last night on his way back home in a car accident. He was a great man whom I looked up to, and he had a love of finer tobaccos. Tobacco was one of the things we bonded on when first met him and let him know I had planned on marrying his daughter.
And now, just a couple days ago I had given him a corn cob pipe (because he love the simple things like that) and we smoked some tobacco - which he hadn't smoked a pipe in years.
When he visited, he always wanted to help out with my work-shop project and then would spend time out here smoking cigars, cigarettes, and enjoying a good whiskey. Without him my workshop wouldn't be complete as it is today. His wealth of knowledge on a vast variety of topics will be sorely missed.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. The loss of family is bad enough, but to add to that by the loss of a friend is tragic. Take care of yourself.
