We've got one less Falcon's fan today.
I was awakened at 5 AM by the phone and told to get from Birmingham to Columbus as quickly as possible. After being at the doctor all day yesterday and finally getting a diagnosis, dad was in the kitchen last night and collapsed. He was rushed to the hospital and his blood pressure and heart rate kept dropping. He had a seizure about 4:30 in the morning and was rushed into emergency surgery to put a temporary pacemaker in to control his heart, but he passed away on the operating table. We're devastated. He loved the Falcons and Auburn football. I miss him.
Just wanted to let you guys know. Even more so than my post last night, things like this put a silly football game into serious perspective. |

Sorry man i feel your pain. Just remember the good times
I lost my Uncle last Friday. The biggest falcon i knew. The man that thought me everything i know about(coached me better than my coaches) football. The man that sat in the stands with me at Fulton county stadium teaching me how to be a fan. |

wow Drake, so sorry to hear the news. you and your family will certainly be in my prayers. Chin up my friend, he's not hurting anymore. that's the way i looked at it when my dad passed on two years ago. it helps to know he's not suffering any more and is in a better place
Chew on THAT, Petunia!
