Found out that my friend Jack has gone to meet his Maker. The man for whom I did the trailer lettering called today to get a phone number changed. I asked about our mutual friend Jack, and he told me Jack passed away two months ago. Apparently he'd had a blood clot in his leg which required an amputation, and after that Jack just lost his will to go on. He was a great guy, and he will be sorely missed. Love....Jill

Jill I'm sorry to hear that. So sad for you. My former neighbor in Ohio also lost his life to that. Such a shame when you bond with someone. He and his wife were really down to earth and very good to everyone. He organized the first air show in Delaware, Ohio (near Columbus) and had planes from all the wars including WWII bombers they gave rides in. well, not to go on too much, but that's nothing to fool around with.
There are tests for that; I took one 2 years ago this month. They can tell if any of your arteries are clogged and most insurances cover it or there are pay plans for it too. I went through the hospital and it was all covered; they wrap cuffs around your legs just like the blood pressure cuffs and also do ultrasound, etc, a stress test and the works. It relieved my mind at least for that.
Please if anyone has the chance, go get checked out. So sorry about Jack; I bet he's in a good place rooting for you sweetie.
