Joe,

I saw that when I checked out the link. Also some of the others that I sent the link to via e-mail. His sisters will appreciate all of the kind things that are being said.

Ron

I also checked in and signed it Ron.

Thanks for getting this for us.

This is a neat service that we can sign Warren's guestbook. It doesn't cost anything and only takes a a short time to do it.

Done.

Not sure who everyone else is, but it is good to see the "Lounge lizards" stopped by.

Thumbs up I can honestly say, Warren's posts kept me coming to The Site......

.........practically hourly. Those "Motivational Posters" were the highlight of my day! Larfed out loud. He was one of the CC Greats. An Olympian God. Going to be missed terribly by all hands. A wonderful guy to talk to on the phone, also. Only wished I had met him in person.......

Yes, Warren & his great posts really added to the site. The "Motivational Posters" was my favorite. It's not the same without him. He is already missed.

Thanks for starting this "memorial" thread. Warren was a good man. Honestly I cannot think of any time I ever had a cross word with him. He did make me laugh (a lot) with that "Motivational Posters" thread, even when I said it was DOA (after a while.) Warren was not a trouble maker or wave maker. He was fun. And apparently he lived his life like that. When God takes me, I hope it is sudden also. To me, that is a prescious gift. But for it to be trully prescious, we have to live, like Warren, "in the moment". Golden Rule and all of that. I love the lyrics to this song, and I would like to dedicate it to our friend Warren T Meyer. --Mike

Tim McGraw - "Live Like You Were Dying"

He said I was in my early forties, with a lot of life before me
And one moment came that stopped me on a dime
I spent most of the next days, looking at the x-rays
Talking bout' the options and talking bout' sweet times.
I asked him when it sank in, that this might really be the real end
How's it hit 'cha when you get that kind of news?
Man what did ya do?
He said

I went skydiving
I went rocky mountain climbing
I went two point seven seconds on a bull named Fu Man Chu
And I loved deeper
And I spoke sweeter
And I gave forgiveness I'd been denyin'
And he said some day I hope you get the chance
To live like you were dyin'

He said I was finally the husband, that most the time I wasn't
And I became a friend, a friend would like to have
And all of a sudden goin' fishin, wasn't such an imposition
And I went three times that year I lost my dad
Well I finally read the good book, and I took a good long hard look
At what I'd do if I could do it all again
And then

I went skydiving
I went rocky mountain climbing
I went two point seven seconds on a bull named Fu Man Shu
And I loved deeper
And I spoke sweeter
And I gave forgiveness I'd been denyin'
And he said some day I hope you get the chance
To live like you were dyin'

Like tomorrow was the end
And ya got eternity to think about what to do with it
What should you do with it
What can I do with it
What would I do with it

I went rocky mountain climbing
I went two point seven seconds on a bull named Fu Man Chu
And man I loved deeper
And I spoke sweeter
And I watched an eagle as it was flyin'
And he said some day I hope you get the chance
To live like you were dyin'

Mike,

That is a great tribute and I know that Warren is enjoying it just as I feel he is with each of us when we go for drives and other fun things. He was one of those people that come along once in a lifetime and them world is a better place for his having passed through. I miss him like a brother and will never stop missing him

Ron

It's already been two years today. Seems like a short time and a long time ago.

Warrren was a very unique person that was able to bring people with very different points of view together,usually in laughter.

He was a good friend and is missed.

If he had a major fault it had to be hanging with that Low Class Turtle.

Fred,

It sure seems like two years have passed quickly. I went over and put another entry in his guest book yesterday. Darn, I miss the Turtle and Frog jokes you two had going.

Wow 2 whole years. Doesn't seem like it at all. I was going through some old emails yesterday and I still can't bring myself to delete any of the old jokes and other stuff he sent me. Other stuff is no problem, but he is still missed that much.

Joe,

I still have the link to his You Tube videos of him driving his Cobra and go watch them often. And like you I kept most of the jokes and stuff he sent me.

Glad to see that y'all check out his Cobra Rides on YouTube also.

Fun to watch and know he is smiling ear to ear. Knowing that makes me smile too.

We all loved our Cobras, but I think Warren had more fun with his than almost any of us. I remember him telling me one day when we were talking how he had shoveled his driveway so he could move the Cobra out of the garage and take some pictures of it with the snow piled higher than the car. And then he tried to tell me he took it for a fast spin down some uncleared streets. He was one of a kind for sure.

Ron

That is the same way here Joe. I still have emails from him with those jokes in them. Just can't bring myself to delete them.

RIP Warren,
And thanks for the help with Excel.
