It finally hit home . . .

. . . sigh. . . Well the COVID 19 virus finally hit home.

We lost my Father in Law tonight to (likely) complications from the virus. Poor guy was walking in a crosswalk last November and was hit by an 82 year old woman in an SUV.

He never left the rehabilitation facility. He contracted the virus while he was a patient.

“Sarko of New York” was the quintessential artist. Below is a photo of a French artist from the 1970 Disney animated movie “The Aristocats,” no kidding, the artist in this drawing is the spitting image of Sarko.

Rest In Peace Dad.

Thanks for Listening Guys.

Thanks Guys. He was quite the story teller. Here is an article they did on him a couple of years ago.

https://www.humansofnewyork.com/post/103243501836/i-grew-up-in-jerusalem-when-i-was-a-child-i

One of the worst things about this virus is that people are dying alone. We’re in California, he was in New Jersey. There was simply no way to go out and visit him. My wife feels so guilty.

My condolences RN. He has the look of a real character, one that could converse with anyone and hold their attention. I'm sure he'll be missed.
