My apologies for a somber post
NCG ask me why I didn't participate in his Obama food stamp thread I told him I was at my long time racetrack buddy's memorial service It got me thnking People got up and said a few words, I didn't , people I guess wondered why Well my feeling was I visited him in the hospital and nursing home for 4 months, and tried to do what I could for him when he was alive ,not much I can say and do after he died His GFgave a nice eulogy and mentioned how good of a friend I had been and still am to her and her family That meant a lot His kids and brother who I've never meant, came up to me and thanked me for being a good Friend I 'm reminded of an episode of All in the Family where Archie had to bury a cousin he didnt like and didnt want to pay for the funeral The funeral director said that a funeral is for the living,not the dead That's how I feeI I dont want any big to do Does anybody have a "preplanned" farewell?
