Mixed emotion day. First, the horrible, sad news. Dad Pete, Tom’s dad passed away this afternoon. He had gone in to the hospital on February 11 for back surgery to alleviate some back pain he was having. He was supposed to go home after a couple days. He came through the surgery ok, but then had one thing after another come up.
Just as Tom was getting that sad news from his brother Mike in Tulsa, I was getting the great news from Elizabeth at Southeast in Nashville that she had received the title to the Alpha! Hurray!! Elizabeth and I talked and reviewed the loan and I made sure all of the “numbers” were still the same, and they were. This was all happening at 14:00 our time and it was 16:00 in both Tulsa and Nashville. I was just leaving work and ended up rushing down to Tom in Bakersfield to comfort him and also because the loan papers were being emailed to Tom and we had to have a couple of them notarized. I figured that there must be a notary at the station.
I got to the station and Tom checked his email, we printed them, I filled them out, and we got them notarized.
