On April 15th of this year my 95 year old grandfather passed away at 8:05 am. I was scheduled to work 4 AAU basketball games that afternoon and evening. I immediately went to the first location and told them what happened and that I would not be coming to ref. Meanwhile, i had my wife call our assignor who lives in Florida( I live in IN) to also inform him of what happened. He told my wife he did not care what the reason was, if I could not find a replacement I'd better be there. Needless to say I let him know what he could do with his basketball games. Don't get me wrong, I love officiating, but I think it needs to be kept in the proper perspective! I was supposed to go to this assignors camp to try to move up Div 1 Womens. I also told him what he could do with his camp. Give me some comments back on what all of you think please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
