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.

R.I.P. man.. sorry to hear that..

Thanks so much you guys. It means the world to me to read your responses. I don't know any of you personally, but I love yall, even if it's just over the internet. Today has been really hard, but coming on here has made it a little less painful.

Saddened to hear this news. God bless your father. Stay close to your family because, in the end, that is what it is all about.
