We buried my wife's grandfather today. I am going to have my best, a Partagas EL in his honor tonight. He was a great man. I was okay until they did the 21 gun salute, and I lost it. There was something about seeing those old timers honoring one of their own that got me. Have a good one for Grandpa Joe!

I tried...

Broke out a Sancho Panza Belicoso. The taste was great, but I couldn't get any damn smoke out of it on account of the tight draw.

Maybe I'll grab an Opus and try again

My condolanses on your loss.

Red, where is he resting? We laid my Grandfather down in Leavenworth National Cemetary in 2001....The Marine burial ceremony was one of the most incredible and touching things I've ever seen..Prayers out to you and yours, I hope this note finds you well.

God Bless Grandpa Joe; Red. Condolences and prayers for your loss. I salute your Grandfather. His memory lives on in those he loves and those he served with. He is now with his band of brothers honoring he who sacrificed all for us.
