When you die.

acotrel said:
When you die, it does not really matter because you probably only ever heasr about other people dying.
In this life, our achievements are only limited by our mindsets.
What is important is how we are remembered, because when we are gone, we still exist in other peoples' memories.

Just recently lost my two older sisters in the course of 6 months. I am what's left. The golden years aren't all that golden. My best to you and yours sir.
 
Thank you ! …. my younger sister lost her battle in ‘18 …. It really, really tough losing your siblings … sometimes life just bites you hard , take care
 
I just turned 65 and it started me thinking of people in my past. These are people that are as fresh in my mind as if I just saw them yesterday. I worked with Paul at the bike shop. I found out that he died over ten years ago. I looked up his older brother Robert and found his obituary. He passed in 2016. These were great friends and truly fun individuates. The guys, Rex, Leo and Leroy, I used to ride with in my 20s are all gone but I see their faces as clear as day. I lost my old racing buddy Jerry to Parkinson's years ago but we were mad for bikes together. Debby, who's Norton I am the steward of, died of pulmonary fibrosis a couple of years back. If you live long enough you outlive those friends that mean so much. I guess it's not a bad thing if we remember them and keep them with us in our hearts.

A very good mate if mine has the end in sight
He likes to joke about it
He hasn't been able to work for over a year now
He says he's taken early "exspirerment" rather than early retirement !!
Best wishes mate

I have a friend who is one month younger than myself. I sometimes phone him and ask him if he is still alive, The other day a surgeon had his hand inside my friend's heart, after dropping some sort of filter. We had a bit of a laugh about that. My friend is different to me - when we were racing, he would stick his neck out a lot further. I think he had bladder cancer - there is always something which is trying to kill him.
I have been thinking I might die, but it hasn't happened yet. I might not know when it does.

My mom knew, in her heart, that I was going to die on a motorcycle. I still might but it looks increasing unlikely.

Three people told me I would die young because of motorcycles.
They are all gone now - poor diet for one - poor diet and NO exercise for another - lousy inattentive driving (an automobile)got the third .
 
I was told many times by my old foreman I'd never make 25 "the way I ride that bike"
I'm still here and 64 this year
