Mr. CFB will be back on Friday
Friends,
I’m sorry but I can’t be with you today. We lost my wife’s mother this week and this morning I am attending the funeral.
She was a fine lady and we will miss her. I have been asked by the family to give the eulogy. I hope I can get through it.
I’ll see you again on Friday with our predictions.
Thanks,
TB

Deepest sympathy to your family. On a lighter note. A good SEC team would destroy the Blue Broncos of Boise St. Heck, I think Miss. St. would expose them as mediocre. War Eagle!

Sorry to hear of your and your wife’s loss of her mother.
I was asked to give the eulogy at my mother-in-law’s funeral, also. I asked her and The Lord to get me through it, and they did. I kept thinking about all of the good times, the fond memories, and the way she always spoke her mind….”Just tellin’ it like it is”.
It ain’t easy, but in times of great trial we often find strength we never knew we had.

As always, God Bless. A eulogy from the often sentimental Tony Barnhart ought to be a fitting tribute.

Rduck, that’s the stupid fleabag imposter known as either (Phouqe Tech, Eric, and Hokie–all the same)
I didn’t say they, it’s a fleabag that has hijacked my moniker.

RAMBLE ON!!!—I have to stop and really wonder how sad and pathetic your existence must be, how unhappy you are, how mean-spritited and ugly you’ve become at this stage of your life, no matter what your age is. If you were born that way, I hope you continue on for the rest of your days as unhappy and bile-filled as you are now, each day as miserable as the last day was. If some one did this to you somehow, it’s never too late to turn things around and start enjoying the joy that life offers to each and every one of us every day. You can’t control what people do to you but you have complete control over how you react.
Tony, may God hold your wife, you and the rest of the family in the palm of His hand. As another poster said so well, remember the gift of her presence and spirit, and remember the Parable of the Candle.
RAMBLE ON!!!

Take care of your family, we are all praying for you.
My father passed away in the fall of 1980 after a long illness. The last conversation I had with him he said “Son, don’t let your mother schedule my funeral on a Saturday afternoon. I don’t want my friends to have to miss their game to attend my service.” Football fan to the end.
