Jack, was wondering where you were at.... figured on vacation to some sunny spot.  Sorry to hear about your sister.  Death in the family is never easy - what might take some of the edge off is delving into radio, getting on the air, and cutting up with the boys to take your mind off things.  Works for me.

Good to have you back, man.  73 John

Jack, SRI to hear of your sister's passing. On the 24th of Jan, it would have been 2 years for my sister and we were the same way. It just makes you walk around in a daze for a while. Believe it or not, the best thing I found that was good therapy was getting back to work :cry:

Hi Jack,
I know what you're going through.  It's happened to me a couple of times with family members and very close friends.  

From my own experience and this was advice from my old man, don't let nothing slow you down.  The best way is to climb up on that horse and keep going.  

About 15 years ago my buddy Don was taken by cancer at a very early age in his life and very suddenly.  The two of use were inseparable.  He was 30 years old.  His departure hit me like a ton of bricks.  It took me a while to get over it but using my old mans advice and those here on the board who have similar advice, occupy yourself with your daily duties and any other things you want to do.  It helps immensely to get over being bummed out.  It also helps you to think about the good things that person did and the influences that person had on your own life.  

You'll bounce back with good memories.  Share those good memories with the good friends here for those moments when you need that lift.  

Like JN said, get on the air and cut up with the guys.  Humor is great medicine.  Your sister would have wanted it that way.
