Hello JKU,

I know I haven't been a member here long and I have no intent on leaving for good. However due to some unexpected events I have choosen to sell the JKU. Last week my Father unexpectedly passed leaving a huge hole in our family. Part of that emptiness is finding ways to help Mom cope with her loss. She hasn't spent a day past 16 years old alone. Was happily Married for 50+ years and now suddenly she on her own. No matter what the reason Family is always first. My wife and figured we can do without the Jeep and use the equity to help Mom get back on her feet. Dad was the sole provider for her so things are a bit overwhelming for her. I beileve she'll be okay in time but really needs us and my siblings.

We will have another Jeep in time. Probably when our kids are gown up and moved on with their own lives

For now though, please except this message not as a fairwell but as a noticed that I probably wont be around much and when I am I'll be Jeepless.

I wish you all the very best and the happiest of Holidays.

Cheers until next time

JB

Really sorry for your loss....something we all have to deal with in time as none of us or our loved ones are getting any younger. I'll likely still be kicking round when you come back to the fold. Take care of yourself and your mom.

Thank you Russ,

I can't be grateful enough for the words and the help you've given me over the past year. Hope to do it again real soon.

Cheers,

I'm sorry for you as well. I lost my father last year and my 83yr old mother is suffering significant health issues. Praying for your family.

That is a tough situation, but you must do for the family first. You have your priorities straight. Best of luck. Looking forward to your future return.
