We Lost a Great Bills Fan...

[raphael120]

My uncle met his wife while both were working at a TV station in Buffalo in the 80s and they became friends quickly. As time went by they got close, but inevitably, they both moved yet still stayed in touch. Time passed by and the Bills season opener arrived. Packed house. 80,000 people. As my aunt was walking into the stadium, she looked up and saw, of all people, my uncle. She said it was that moment that she knew they were going to be together. Well time passed by and they eventually got married in '91, but they always look back to that game as fate that they ran into eachother there. Well, my uncle just passed away this past weekend, prematurely (he was only 44) of a heart attack. He was a great man, and I am proud to call him my uncle. He was also a great Bills fan...so much so, he was apparently not much of a suit and tie guy...as he was buried in his Buffalo Bills jersey.

Just want everyone to know, you have the biggest Bills fan up in Heaven now, rooting for them.

I had a heart attack at 44 (5 years ago) also. Fortunately for me, I had the best heart surgeon in NY perform a triple bypass. I now run 3 times per week.

Speaking of which, we lost yet another Bills fan last month.

The father of a coworker of mine passed away on March 24th, long time Hamburg NY resident, life long Bills and Sabres fan. Up to the last day he was in the hospital with a Sabres game on TV. Lived his life, mid-80s in age I think. Would've loved to finally see the Sabres win a big one.

May Jack rest in peace. :pray:
