He turns 90 in a couple of weeks and still wants to be taken for a spin around the block when I'm on the road.

This became a running joke in the months that followed and he even "complained" to my wife I was still taking too long.
Unfortunately, neither of us had seen him since I finally got the car on the road and you know when you get that sinking feeling…
Well, this evening my wife spotted this posted outside our local church and his funeral is tomorrow.
Gutted.
