I figured i would post this here since my friend Joe Sabia died today,he was my best friend,taught me to play pool and also the closest to a father i have ever had.I was planning on going back to NY to see him and other people on the 15th but now i have to leave sooner.Im in disbelief,he was the closest thing to a dad i had.He was an older guy but young on the inside,we played cards and pool and had so much fun,when i needed someone to talk to and get advice i could count on him.I was a young guy and he was an old timer who took me under his wing and gave me things i could never pay for.I dont know what else to say but figured i would vent,i guess its the best i can do is let the emotion out.

Very sorry to hear that Lenny. I, along with a lot other fortunate pool players, have or had a similar person in their pool playing lives and we can all empathize with you. It is always a shame when they pass on but you just have to remember the good times and cherish what you've gained from having that person in your life.
 
And, Try To Pay It Forward

Lenny,
As sad as this is, please rejoice in the knowledge that you carry all he taught you within and how proud he would be.

Lenny,
What can we say other than our words and our heart felt feelings towards you will hopefully help you in this sad time. Times like you're facing makes us appreciate our family and friends all the more. Spend some time telling your other close friends how important they are to you. That's good medicine for their spirit as well as yours!

Sounds like you guys had a pretty great relationship. I'm sure he felt the same way about you. It's so easy to get caught up in money and material things, but it comes down to relationships in life. And, it sounds like you lucked out developing one with him. All the best.
