Address: 1081 Dalesford Dr, Alpharetta GA 30004
400N to exit 12B
Follow the exit over the bridge
4th (I think?) light is Union Hill Rd - turn left (sign overhead)
Left into Holleybrooke subdivision
First left Dalesford Dr
Follow Dalesford Dr - it curves around and there are culdesacs going off in different directions but carry on to the end and you'll literally drive straight into our driveway. Yellow house, black shutters and I'm sure there'll be lots of cars out front. Rob's red F150 and my dark blue Nissan Altima for sure. Call me for times as I'll finalize this once I know the times for the visitation.
Home 770 442 3069
Travel safely everyone.
Leigh
JPWarrior 06-26-2008, 04:59 PM Heads up guys and gals.
I copied this from Leighs first posting about this. This regards the food and beverages.
"Leigh here.....we would be happy to have everyone at our house on sat pm. Let me know what you would like to do. We live about 30 miles N of downtown Atlanta. We can either bbq and everyone can bring meat and drinks, OR everyone can bring take out wings and drinks. I'll supply plates/utensils/sides etc."

Good deal. Thank-you. :)
Just a suggestion,,,, I don't want you guys going to any more trouble than you will. Do you think a pot-luck thing would be in order? You know, everyone bring something?

Without a doubt Stu and James will be there! Rob and Leigh, you just tell me and James what all you want/need and count on it being there. I'll be heading out the door tomorrow around mid-morning to be in ATL to pick James up from the airport early Saturday morning. If there's anyone else that's in need of a ride, let me know.... I'll be bringing the wife's Envoy XL instead of my truck so there'll be room. So chairs, drinks, meats.... anything else?

plimmer 06-27-2008, 06:57 AM Hi everyone....Leigh here...
For all of those travelling to ATL, you are welcome to come through to our house in the morning or even if it is very late tonight to relax and freshen up before visitation. Visitation is from 5 - 8 Saturday and we will be there at 5 for a short while, so let's plan on the "official" start of the bbq to be at 7 or when you all get back to our house. Chairs will be good idea, meat and any special drinks you may want. I will take care of the rest - Chips, Side dishes etc. I have a couple tables and ez ups.

jinx1014 06-29-2008, 01:39 PM Just like Paytheon said, "Thanks Rob and Leigh for all of the hospitality last night". It was good to see and meet everyone. Too bad it was to say good bye to one of our own.
Just got home... it rained most of the way up here. SPYDR1 should be getting home in about an hour.
Thank you Rob and Leigh for the wonderful time. You're awesome people!
Thank you Michael for letting us all stay at your house. You just made a new friend!:)

GapRider 06-29-2008, 10:42 PM guys, it really meant a lot to me to be able to hang out with all of you at Rob's last night. I enjoyed my time with everybody I got to spend time with. It is a good memory already and it makes me want to get together with all of you again.
Rob and Leigh, thank you for opening your home once again and making all of us feel so welcome ( and feeding us well).
Paytheon 06-29-2008, 11:21 PM I finally arrived home. It was wonderful seeing all the people I met at the gap. I really enjoyed being able to see my Steven, Eddie, Stu, Bill, and Scott. You guys are inspirational for sure. And, it was great to finally meet two incredible guys Kirk and Kevin there too. Also, I really enjoyed spending a lot of time talking with Rob this weekend, you are one of the most motivating guys I've ever met. Last, thanks Shane for being there for you are a brother to everyone. Thanks everyone again.

+1 Eddie. It was tough having to leave this afternoon. I wished we coulda stayed for dinner with you folks. Hope we get together under better circumstances soon!
Thank you everyone for coming. That was definitely a Chad style party.
We wouldn't want to let him down Rob. Thanks for being so gracious and offering your home for this occasion.
Leigh and Robyn, you two were like a well oiled machine getting all the food ready for everyone. Thank you!
Got home about 40 min ago and was trying to sleep and can't yet. Skeeter and Sal still have a few hours drive left.
It was a pleasure making new acquaintances and finally putting faces with forum names. Even though I've seen many of you in pictures here, it's not the same until you greet a person face to face.
I don't want too sound corny, but you could really see and feel everyone's passion for the way we live and the love you all seem to share for each other. I was glad to be a part of it.:thumbup
Thanks to you!
Vman1300 06-30-2008, 08:10 AM It was great seeing everybody last night. I wish I had had more time to talk to everybody. Big Kev, when I looked up you were gone........hope you're feeling well.
It was a rough weekend but with God's help and the presence of ALL our friends, I made it through.
It was great seeing everyone over the weekend. It really gives a new meaning to the word FAMILY.
SPYDR1 06-30-2008, 12:34 PM :stpd: It's all been said already but I just want to echo my thanks to all for coming together for everyone this weekend. There is much love in this community and I think its Awesome!!!:rock:thumbup:fork
Skeeter 06-30-2008, 01:16 PM Sal and I got in around 4AM after detours in Jax and Daytona. I had a wonderful time with everyone and was glad we had a huge turn out for Chad. It just shows how close all of us are. Rob and Leigh, thank you so much for your hospitality.

Also, I really enjoyed spending a lot of time talking with Rob this weekend, you are one of the most motivating guys I've ever met. Last, thanks Shane for being there for you are a brother to everyone. Thanks everyone again.
I was glad to have gotten to know you a little better James:thumbup
Just got home... it rained most of the way up here. SPYDR1 should be getting home in about an hour.
Thank you Rob and Leigh for the wonderful time. You're awesome people!
Thank you Michael for letting us all stay at your house. You just made a new friend!:) Glad to meet you Franco?
+1 Eddie. It was tough having to leave this afternoon. I wished we coulda stayed for dinner with you folks. Hope we get together under better circumstances soon!
We wouldn't want to let him down Rob. Thanks for being so gracious and offering your home for this occasion.
Leigh and Robyn, you two were like a well oiled machine getting all the food ready for everyone. Thank you!
Got home about 40 min ago and was trying to sleep and can't yet. Skeeter and Sal still have a few hours drive left.
It was a pleasure making new acquaintances and finally putting faces with forum names. Even though I've seen many of you in pictures here, it's not the same until you greet a person face to face.
I don't want too sound corny, but you could really see and feel everyone's passion for the way we live and the love you all seem to share for each other. I was glad to be a part of it.:thumbup
Thanks to you!
Shawn, you're hopeless. That endo on the wheelchair at the cemetery was just too much for me. :rock If it wasn't such a somber occassion I would probably still be there laughing. :lol:hammer::hammer:
W8nonu 06-30-2008, 02:36 PM It was really nice meeting you and your family Jabati? is that even close? Looking forward to seeing you again under better circumstances.
Same here and you are very close with the name(just three letters off lol)..but you can call me Jay it's easier. I look forward to seeing you soon during a happier occasion.:thumbup
Skeeter 06-30-2008, 02:49 PM You look just like how you look on tv..I mean the internet. Nice to meet you, wish it was under different circumstances though.
Same here. :thumbup

Rob and Leigh,
I really want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for allowing everyone to gather and visit with one another.
Leigh: You are an amazing, energetic woman who seemed to be everywhere at once as a hostess. Thank you!
Rob: The stories you shared with us about Chad, both at your home and the church left me completely humbled. Your respect, admiration and friendship were all obvious. And believe me, sharing that with everyone will go a long way in the healing process.
If there is ever anything I can do for either of you, please do not hesitate.
Take care...

A big thanks to Rob & Leigh, as well. For them and everybody else, no matter the circumstances, it's always a gift to be in the company of good people. :fact
This forum (the people) has taken on a new, better meaning to me in recent days. What I had taken for granted as just a group of people with common interests who like having a good time (and I mean a REALLY good time), I now view as much more than that. This "family" has taken root for me now, and there is no going back.
