Something about Mr. Wooster

Well...

I just found out about the passing of a real close family friend, Mr Fred Wooster, @ 73 years of age, and feel that I need to write something about the uplifting impact he had on my life. He was a man that had a real part in why this blog is named "Quiet Place." Back when my Grandfather had this plot of land called "Quiet Place," we always had some huge family/friend gatherings that were nothing but fun memories (ones that last a lifetime). The friend he planned these with was Mr. Wooster.

This guy was one of the most sincere & nicest men I have ever met. He had this handsomely gruff look to him that just made his humor and smile come through with an amazing originality. He was really the type of guy you want on your side and that you want to learn from each and every day. Sounds a bunch like my Grandfather...which is why I probably respected him so much. His family is really amazing and I hope we get to cross paths in the future. He was a real fighter and battled a fierce uphill fight as of late. I think God really had a hard time pulling such a great person away from so many loved ones, but I know that Mr. Wooster was needed. It's a great feeling to know that Mr. Wooster is looking down with a smile seeing how many people he touched in such a positive way. Thank you Mr. Wooster and we'll be seeing you again!

Tyson,

On behalf of the whole Wooster clan, Thank you!! We were so blessed to have him for as long as we did. And it does matter that others felt the same way about him that we do. Can't wait to see you and your family again.
