Down the road I'll progressively get more and more detailed about either what happened or the man he was. I'm plenty wrecked, but I don't feel like the actual void has been truly felt yet. What it will mean when he is no longer there is far more than I can handle. Honestly, I'm 26 years old and I don't know anything about anything. I was hoping he could teach me as I went.
Calvin Stanley Robinson never got to see me walk down the aisle or see any grandchildren. Today I am starting my new job as a full-time high school teacher, and although I know every single damn day he asks me how school was and I say "Good" and he just laughs it off, I want to tell him everything about it. I'm not taking time off, and he wouldn't want me to do so either. It's time for me to begin providing.
Like I said, I'll be able to say more later as I go, but it was a heart attack (his second one). I have to get ready for my day.
This thread is hard to make, not only because it's one that I didn't want to have to make for a long time, but I feel like anything people say won't help me out. I just want people to know that the world lost a great man yesterday, and of about only eight close deaths that I have had, this is by far the closest and most impacting.
