GK and Nana bricks

You rock!

Thank you.

 

Thoughts are with them wherever they are. They are missed.

 

Thank you, Defense. Seeing them in place like that brought tears to my eyes.

 

I hear you, lacuna. I felt a real sadness in looking those bricks.

Thanks again, @defensewinschampionships , for going the extra mile to get pics for us. Very cool of you.

 

Even just via text on this message board, the love GK had for his wife was poetic. I always admired that

 

Doing the lords work.

 

So nice. I also really appreciate it, defense.

 

Really nice of you to do that, thank you.

Sorry, for this OT, but this got me going a little bit a la @lacuna ...I miss those posters. My amazing sister (RIP, Mims,) had this infernally frustrating habit of buying me a garnet and gold color necktie every year. I would open the box and just look at her with my best "again, really?" look before giving it to a FSU friend the following week as I will not wear those colors. She was a Gator fan, she taught English and Spanish in one of the nearby prison towns to help put my brother in law through UF law school, she just loved that color combination and did not make the immediate association I did. One year she handed me my Christmas present and it most definitely was not a necktie, the box was really heavy. It was the replica brick of the Gator Walk brick she had purchased for me. Once I realized what is was, that made up for all the condiment color ties...what a cool present that was.

 

Thanks for posting the photos and for sparking some memories.

 

Another example of just how wonderful this Gator Country community is.

 

I sent a copy of GK's brick through facebook to his brother, Tommy. Hopefully he still checks facebok. I had sent him a copy of the certificate back when we first purchased the brick.

Also, I know several here were in touch with Nana's son after she had passed (@OklahomaGator ; @GatorGrowl ?). If anyone has his contact info, please send a copy of the pic to him and let him know that it's at Emerson Hall Plaza. TY!

 

Thanks a bunch. GK was a great poster who grew up in MN. Whenever I needed to fret about the weather, he would understand. Really appreciate you tracking down their bricks and sharing here.

 

I had interaction with Holly when I first joined. Mostly PMs. She seemed very nice.

And GK always made me smile when he found a way in every topic to go off on RE appraisers.

 

Who else was gonna talk about appraisers, Sargent??
