    If the ol convoy can't be pulled off maybe at a specific time where ever one is to blow their horn.

    Thanks Texas-Nana
    That was a wonderful prayer that brought tears to my eyes!

    My heart goes out to you Dino and to Ms SP. And also to all of you on this site that knew SP so well. I know how hard it is to loose someone you love. Just recently been there myself.

    For those that dont know who I am well... I am Kittyfoots better half. :biggrin_25525:
    He has been keeping me updated on SP's illiness. Just decided to come back to the site under my old login after about a year.

    A convoy can be done Dino. The question is can we get a police escort?? We will need it for sure. That would be a sight to see; 200 tractor trailers in Orlando.

    Now, I don't know how much of you believe in the life after this one, but personally, I have seen enough to believe in it.

    I also don't know how many of you believe in the ability to communicate with the departed, but I have seen enough to know there are no-kidding mediums who can bring forth messages that only those who passed would be aware of.

    Having said all that, my girlfriend's mother went to a medium, and a very strong personality kept coming across to the medium with a message for my girlfriend's father. The individual was the father's old Marine Corps and trucking buddy. The father doesn't believe in this sort of thing, but even he has admitted that he has felt his departed friend's presence in his truck from time to time. The message the father's friend wanted to impart was this: heaven is an even more beautiful place than you can imagine, and he has a truck up there that would put any on earth to shame.

    I have no doubt that Southern Pride will be up there truckin' with the best of them...and SP, if you read this - Godspeed, my friend. There's a shiny Pete with your name on it waiting for you...and watch over my Kenworth until I see you there!

    May God Bless, Keep, and Protect Southern Pride, his family, and his friends during this extremely difficult time.

    This was posted yesterday in another thread. Thought y'all might want to know where things stood at the time.

    God bless the SP's.

    sorry eveyone ,aint had much sleep in the llast 2 days..but i just talked with mrs, pride, for now due to his (stump) as mrs pride calls it is in such pain he begins to shake uncontrolably, last night the move went smoothly,,there are no wonder druds, no doctors just his regular doc that he has seen for years..he gets a shot of morphine every hour on the hour..so he is in no pain..but on the flip side of that the most hedos is eat very little. mrs pride 's son flew in fron san antoino today to help her with all the arrangments, sp wanted to be cremated...mrs sp is handleing things the best she can...she feels safer with her son there an helping her with everything an takeing the pressure off from her.....her last comment is get your butt to bed, an if the end comes i will texted you just to call me......she said she will not send that in a text....understandble.... other than that..im glad her sons there with her
