GDT: #4 | Flyers at Kraken | Thursday, October 7, 2024 | 10:00 PM Helltime | NBCSP, KONG | Sheri Memorial GDT

[Beef Invictus]

Flyers lineup adjusted in OP per Charlie's 2pm update. No change for the Kraken aside from starter per their afternoon update.

 

[PHILOUDELPHIA]

Ugh I hate the West Coast. All games should start at 7pm East at the latest.

I missed every game so far.

I have to wait until 4-5am when I wake up to see on demand.

Whoever invented 10pm is a dope

 

[Danko]

Sorry to hear Lou

Hope they can win.

Take my mind off my sister passing away at 39

My family's thoughts and prayers are with yours during your time of loss.

 

[PHILOUDELPHIA]

Thanks for letting me vent all.

This is therapy.

Hope you like my selections.

Flyers lineup is last night's. Be not afraid.

Why did you schedule this for so late? This is stupid.

Well I’m not sure if anyone has ever done a home Funeral. But we are.

First Sheri, passed at the Atlantic Care Hospital in Pomona , NJ - Stockton University is next door.

She was transported to Penn in Center City for Gift of Life. She’s an organ donor.

Then the funeral place will do the cremation and Urn.

Then we are hosting a funeral at my Brothers near Lansdale because all are family lives up there. I’m the only one in south jersey. Best part it’s more convenient. We can pick a Saturday and the time.

Thankfully Sheri had some kind of life policy. The only cost is 1170 for the cremation which her policy covers.

So the only out of pocket cost is the food for the home service.

Why did you schedule this for so late? This is stupid.

Also it was thanksgiving in Canada, we could have played a 1 or 4pm game

Johnson playing and getting 11 minutes proves right there how little faith the coach has in him.

So why not try Andrae, who has earned it?

Sometimes we may disagree on stuff here but I think everyone here can agree we’re also here for each other in times of need. I’m always available via PM to anyone here who just needs to talk or vent. That being said this game will have a football score tonight, I believe.

To build character.

Strong culture move.

Ummm...Lou....Canada Thanksgiving was this past Monday.

 

[PHILOUDELPHIA]

Ummm...Lou....Canada Thanksgiving was this past Monday.

Exactly the Flyers were off.

One of these west coast games could have been on that Monday at 1

 

[GKJ]

She collapsed Saturday from asthma / pneumonia

A second ambulance was needed, which I thought was strange. Note I was at the store when it happened. Mom told me what husband told her.

So after about 10 minutes the ambulance got oxygen and to hospital.

Her vitals were good but her top brain was no good. Bottom brain was functioning but not top.

Yesterday it got worse the test revealed brain dead and the husband signed the ok to turn the ventilator off.

She’s going be cremated.

It’s been a total mind job. RIP Sheri

All the best to your family. As I get older (I am now 40), I get a little more shaken when someone my age or younger passes away, whether I know them or not.

This week someone in my high school class passed away, age 39. I didn’t know him at all, but he is the 4th person from my class to pass. It’s a dark reminder.

 

[macleish1974]

Was he really? That's pretty funny.

The article was in BSH.

What is even funnier, there is a picture of him in a Flyers jersey [ I guess in development camp}, his number was......guess what????........... 39!!!!!

Now we know why he was in a huff........they promised Michkov the number and he had a hissy-fit!!!!!!

I'm very sorry for your loss, Lou.

We are all but transient meat.

I'm 39 and last night had gout in my feet, arthritis in my fingers, and my elbow was so f***ed it was hard to lift food to eat. I'm feeling especially mortal right now, especially reading about shock passings like this.

Edit: As I shambled around last night I remarked to Beefette that I felt like Quasimodo and she very helpfully pointed out that Quasimodo was actually pretty nimble and I am not

I’m 42.

I actually went to work everyday this week full 8/9 hours, just to get a way from hospital.

Ray a co worker, I gotta get me this coffee cup. Actually might ink it on me

Every time I run, I always have a though that there's someone all the time who does the exact same thing I'm doing and collapses afterward, but that goes for literally anything.

Years ago when I worked at a supermarket, one of my co-workers daughter was killed in a car accident (at spot that is on my commute), and he didn't miss a day of work except for the funeral.

That’s why we’re doing a home funeral. We can pick a Saturday when everyone is off and at are time .

I’m off weekends and most of the family is. I just like dictating vs a place doing the funeral

Just wait. Dont let things linger. Get them fixed. Stay as fit as you can. The shit will come back. I've had six surgeries in the past five years most of which occurred while i was in the military 35 years ago!

I actually went to work everyday this week full 8/9 hours, just to get a way from hospital.

Today marks 25 years since my sister died suddenly in a no-fault car accident when she was 18. Pretty cool milestone. Can't believe it's 25 years.

I didn't always but for the last 10 or so years I have felt invigorated around this time. A yearly reminder (who am I kidding? I think about her daily) to live and to continue forward. Despite the lows we all experience, I like to believe/think we must live on in our lost one's honor. I hope she's proud of me. Her initials are REM. My only tattoo says "REMember" in a scripted font.

You don't know me, but I'm proud of you for staying strong and continuing to do what you have to do to keep your world turning.

If you a Tool Fan and ever seen

Constantine you will love this. Maynard very underrated song. Great for healing in times like funerals

OMG I am so sorry for your loss, especially with it being so sudden. There's no words that can do justice to losing someone so young. I lost my brother at 44 and it's still hard to think he's been gone six years while I'm spending time with my nephew. I wish you and your family all the love and strength to continue on in her memory.

Haha, I try, but I'm made of wet cardboard filled with lipid-rich blood, so its an ongoing series of disasters. I've got this bad feeling that I'm not fated for a long life. I'll survive as long as I can out of spite if I must
