End of an era
Sitting at the coffee shop tonight, working on my paper, I suddenly thought "Why isn't my cell phone ringing? It should be ringing, I swear." I pulled it out to check. 5:55pm.
After several days of not being able to focus on my work, I was suddenly sucked into it, relaxed and clear headed.
At 6:04, my Mom called to say that Grandpa had passed away a few minutes before.

Mass search!
Okay, just out of curiosity, I ran today through a "This Day In History" web page.
According to it, guess who else died on this day?
Alexander the Great.
One of Grandpa's heroes.
However... I've also found references to his death being on June 10th, June 13th, and 'in July'. So I propose a mass search on this. :) Anyone wanna help me out here? Would be a detail to use in a eulogy...
