when the day began, i had no idea that i would be putting together this particular post - a day that began bleak and dismal turned into an incredibly beautiful sunny balmy day that called for sunny dispositions and light fare otherwise - in any event, after going out and about in the blue skies for several hours, my only intent was to just dabble with a bit of creative verse upon which i'm trying to work - but my attentions became distracted and i ended up browsing the net for a bit, coming across, i'm not sure how, an obituary for my paternal grandfather [papastrap] - it is one i had found online several years and had downloaded into my genealogy records - but i came across it online a few hours ago and began re-reading it and realized for the first time several little oddities in the information -
the main story of his death is that papastrap, born june 15, 1884, at the time of his death june 2, 1946, lived in winnfield louisiana with my grandmother [mamastrap] - however, when he died, he was in coffeyville kansas with my father accompanying him by car from louisiana upon the death of my grandfather's brother - my great uncle had just died two days previously of a heart attack, on friday, may 31, 1946 [within hours of june 1] and papastrap and my father had traveled to coffeyville for his funeral which was to be monday - the night before the funeral, papastrap went to bed in his hotel room about 8:00 pm and my father retired to his own room - the next morning, at 8:00 am, my father went to papastrap's room where he discovered my grandfather dead - also from a heart attack, as it turned out - papastrap was 61 years old - his brother who had just died was 60 -papastrap had seven [7] siblings, including his brother who had just died * -

this is stunning...as i was reading, i was thinking, his number must be 6, same as mine...hmmm, not sure how relevant that is but then I saw his number was 33, so I was right although I judged it based on june being the sixth month...interesting set of facts you have here...
and you must be into numerology too! fascinating:)
hi linda - well, i know that a lot of people have "anniversary" deaths in their families but i'd not really looked in any great detail at the exact dates in my family - and this is just my father's line of two generations - anyway, i just decided to sit down and start recording what i was finding and it seemed to me a bit out of the ordinary - but perhaps it really isn't in the grand scheme of things - don't know - thanks so much for coming by and leaving a message - great way to end my evening! jenean
Wow, June is a very significant month!
Fascinating sequence here of Junes and numbers! Those dates would be interesting to look @ astrologically!
well, it was fascinating to me, anyway - i had remembered the story of my grandfather's death, about his traveling with my father to his brother's funeral and then dying himself - but had never realized the significance of the june dates until yesterday - i've read of the "anniversary" deaths, etc - but this one hit very close to me as it involved my family - thanks for the comment - and you're right - great astrological possibilities!
facinating! my family has a number, 22,or 222 sequence that apparently has become very important ..every important event usually happens on a 22, or adddress, tel#, accts deaths and birth..and I found a website blog that people write into about his number also..apprarently others have this
hi marlene - i sent you a response to your comment yesterday but the darned thing didn't go through apparently :)
anyway, just wanted to thank you for coming by and for the info - i'll have to check into the numbers thing - come again soon -
I have been having problems with my post too? they do not show up
and I also response to my friends post and they never get them?? I wonder whats going on!?
yes, me too - wondering, that is, marlene - i've had several people tell me they were unable to leave "comments" on mine - so i took off the "type the word" requirement and made my comments a "pop-up" style - and now that part seems to be working ok for those that were having problems with it - but - there have been several other glitches lately with blogger - maybe tied into that whole thing with twitter, i heard - anyway, thanks for coming by - and have a glorious day!
