    You guys hear me talk about my Dad a lot on here. Well this was him, and 2 years ago today, we lost him to cancer. He was known as Food Man because he loved to cook and feed people. He would buy and cook food and bring to our town hall and feed all the older folks in the area, usually around 80 people. In the winter, he would make huge kettles of soup and bring it around to the older folks. He is where I got my love for food and all things food related, and more important, how to be a good person. Today when you cook your awesome meals like I know you all do, make a little extra and give a meal to an elderly person in your area who would probably really appreciate it . Thanks for your time

      kyle I am still balling here! I was asking my wife last week how many people would attend my funeral. The number she gave me shocked me because I don’t think I have impacted that many people in my life.

      I guess I just feel like Private Ryan at the end of the movie Saving Private Ryan who asks his wife “Tell me I am a good man!”

      Alright, enough crying this morning

      Dr_Pain Interesting,

      I figure I would just have my wife and maybe 2 of the three kids, if they were not too busy.

      All okay with me, just put the ashes by the big oak tree.

              Dr_Pain my dad had planned all the food for his own service. The meal was the important part for him so he wrote down all the meat and sides we were to make, no matter what the cost. My responsibility was to cook and smoke all the meat and make the sauerkraut hotdish…no pressure. With the help of a couple friends and my brother, we pulled it off.

              hey vegetarians, my food poops on your food!

                kyle Your Dad sounds like he was a very special guy and kind of person that the world needs more of. I know the older I get, the more I think about all the special things my parents did for others.

                    I always thought of recording my view of my life with music that told my life story through my eyes to be played at my wake

                      I would have some sarcastic remarks about every MOFO that never came to visit while I was alive and decided to come celebrate my death
