RIP Walter Remak James' Grandfather
As some of you may or may not know, a little over month ago my Grandfather collapse and fell damaging his eye socket and had several bleeds in his brain.
About 2 weeks ago he was released from the hospital and was placed in a 24 hr care facility. About week ago he suffered a couple of minor strokes.
Sadly and peacefully he passed away on Friday (June 1st)
Walter whom lived to the age of 91 loved his family and horse racing. He was always there to make you laugh and had great stories to tell.
He owned several race horses for as far back as I can remember. I remember going to the rack track on several occasions, where he took us back to stables to see all the horses being trained and where we got meet several of the jockeys. This is when I was about 10 and I still remember that I was about as tall as all the jockeys.
His death preceded by his wife, Elsie in November 1990.
He was a great man and will be truly missed.
