R.I.P.

So just a quick note and shout out to a dear friend that The Geeks With Attitude lost. Our friend Don Peak finally ended his fight with cancer with a loss. We've known Don since high school, even played in a cover band with him. He was a good friend and we will miss him greatly. Here's to you Don Peak, "Lechyd Da!!" (That's bottoms up in Welsh for those who don't want to google). Don you were a good friend, good father and a good soldier. My only regret is that I wasn't able to be there at the end like the rest of our friends.

  1. He definitely was a great friend, father and husband. It's not easy seeing friends go, especially when it's something lingering like cancer. It just proves that we are not immortal....and that really sucks.

    But many of us have prayed for him and his family. Like I was telling Rebecca on the ride home from the services. In a way, Don had the easy part. His wife and kids now have to go on without their great dad and wonderful husband. The absolute worst thing though is that his youngest daughter will grow up never remembering her dad from acutal memories. It will all be 2nd hand info and pictures/videos. That breaks my heart every time I think about it.
