Texas Spring/Summer Thread

[bindian]

Brandi--My travels into Boston years ago were a little better that that, but not much. I was opening a restaurant and working pretty hard, Hiring, Training, looking for vendors etc. After opening I traveled in every so often to keep an eye on what was happening. I ate out at night but I never got to do the tourist thing with all the History in Boston. Still there will be plenty of sampling the Boston restaurant scene.......that just can't be helped, but I'm also looking forward to a change in weather(been there in the winter.....I'll pass).

Charlie,
Have a good time and be careful.

Tragic news today.

Mikim has died.

He had an accident yesterday while working with his tractor (FEL) and lawn mower.

His wife is making arrangements today.

He was a good friend and always there to help when called. He will be greatly missed.
Rest in peace Mike.


Bird, could you put a link to his Member of the Month post. Thanks.

That is horrible news. :-(

Terrible news that I just heard from Harv. And Mikim (Mike Kennedy) was Member of the Month in September of last year:

Member of the Month: Mikim | TractorByNet.com ? Compact Tractor Resource

He was also one of the 3 major workers in installing a lift for jinman, along with txdon and wroughtn_harv. I was just there for moral support, but those 3 guys were WORKERS! Some of you may remember Jinman's Lift Project:

Prayers go out to his family.... Very saddening.

This is a shock to Betty and I. Prayers for his family and friends. RIP Mike.

Oh my gosh. Words can't explain the loss. I was hoping to go see him and Bernice week after next. I was wanting to introduce my TBN (first time meeting) friend from Florida to them. Mike said once he and the other Texas guys would help me find the right guy to date. Oh mike, Mike, you will be missed. I really looked up to you.
with sad hugs, Brandi

I just got home and got the news from my wife. Some mutual friends had called her and told her. I am deeply saddened by this. He was a really good man and a straight shooter. Prayers for Bernice and the family.

I don't know if any of you all remember, but Mike and Bernice have a grandson that they adopted when his parents got killed in a car wreck. I can personally vouch that this young man, Trevor ( I think he's in 7th or 8th grade), is a really good kid. Some friends bring him to church every now and then and I go out of my way to spend some time with him.

Sorry for your losses. I know many of you were good friends with each other down in Texas.

Perhaps one of you could start a thread in the family-friends-announcements-notices forum here: If I see it, I'll make it sticky at the top.

Wow. Just logged in today and am shocked to learn of the news. My prayers go out to Bernice and the entire TBN family touched by this. A terrible loss.

 

[buckeyefarmer]

How sad, prayers to his family and all his friends.

 

[Fawken]

Sorry for the loss. I'm in North Texas and didn't know him, but seems like a good fella.

 

[Poopdeck Pappy]

Well, that's just terrible news. I didn't know him, but wish I had. My condolences to family and friends.
