    Sorry for your loss bro. Thoughts and prayers you and your family's way.

    I have been parentless for over 8 years now.

    Everything you're feeling now, you get used to it but still never quite get over it...I still have days where it hits me like a runaway train (my own loneliness, guilt, and regret for some of the choices I made and things I've done).

    I guess when those feelings come I try to focus on everything my parents and I did for each other in this life versus the shoulda-coulda-woulda that I'm sure everyone goes through at some point.

    We keep the ruckous going on TTR to keep you busy!

    Well I talked to the big boss and he apologized for the incident. He said he reprimanded dispatch since under the circumstances I should have not been called. I work for good people. :)
     
    Big Don and passingthru69 Thank this.
