It has been a hard couple of days with all of the remembering. There were some tears this morning, but I was at Starbucks and interrupted by someone who doesn't really know and wouldn't really get it if she did, and I've had a big knot in my stomach ever since. I started to tell her about him, but she didn't seem interested, so I just mentally skipped it.
:-\ :'(
He loved his friends.
--- End quote ---
How does anyone not get it? You lost a friend and yesterday was the anniversary. It's not difficult to understand this is reason for remembering, bitter-sweet feelings and some tears.
I'm sorry she didn't want to know. Maybe she had her own reasons, or maybe she just had a dumb day.

Hope Truman doesn't mind my pulling this over from his Shakestheground Rumblings' blog. It is just a snippet of a beautifully-written account of some Brokies' recent stay in a cabin in Tennessee:
Mandy treated me to a true gift, she brought out a copy of the slide show from our friend Rich's memorial service two years ago. It was such a blessing being able to see those pictures again of his smiling face, see them now without grief or sadness, but with an appreciation I had the eyes to see it, and the ability to tell her: "That dog there, his name was Jack from Tennessee!"

With many thanks to BayCityJohn for bringing this to my attention,
Happy Birthday Rich!
