    A sad Loss

    I picked up the local newspaper to read it and on the front page is a story about the untimely death of my chiropractor. He was 48 and in astonishingly good condition. He was a genuinely good person and a fantastic Chiropractic Dr. It just said untimely death didnt say exactly how.

    Everyone that was his patient became his friend, he was non stop busy and if you were hurting he would open his office on sunday night for you, thats just how he was and he was damn good at it.

    To show you what kind of guy he was, he mentioned that his mother was a fantastic baker and had owned a bakery years ago and her specialty was carrot cake, I said thats my wifes favorite, I had a visit scheduled for 3 days later, as I was getting ready to leave the office, he said wait a sec, and he comes out with this beautiful carrot cake for my wife.

    He was always helping kids and donating and working food kitchens and food banks.
    He would rent a large van and fill it up with kids that didnt have much and bring them to comic con in tampa when it was there.

    The world lost one of the few genuinely good men and he was taken far to soon.

    RIP

    That sucks, 48 is way too young for that. I'm 50 and healthy and I can't say enough how fortunate I feel about that when I hear stories like this.

    That's terrible. I'm so sorry for your loss and clearly the loss to your community. He was so young. May he rest in peace.

    I genuinely liked this man and I looked forward to seeing him and talking to him but I wasnt alone everyone felt that way. To know him was to be his friend, he was a magnet

    I am very sorry for your loss. This is the hardest thing there is. This is truly a loss. So sorry.

    They finally said the cause of death, he died in his sleep of heart failure.

    If you ever saw him it would be hard to believe, 6'2 never smoked, was not fat, strong guy.

    When the big guy punchs your card, all other factors become null and void and dont mean anything, health, condition etc
