Any smokers on the forum

I'm so old and cheap that I quit because I wasn't going to pay the dollar per pack they had just gone too.... in the seventys I think.
However my brother smoked for over 35 years. He quit on friday October 19th at a young age... too young I think.

Howela you and yours will be in our prayers. I do not know what you faith or religion is but I believe your brother is doing fine now that he has returned home to his Creator. I have a Bible verse that I hope will be uplifting Sir.

Thank you everyone... It is comforting to hear kind words from friends. The doctors said the massive stroke that killed Rick was directly related to his heavy smoking all those years. Standing next to my brothers grave I can smell the salt marsh and through the trees can see Battery creek, across which is Port Royal that my brother and I both loved so much.
