musings, short ones
I went to my first funeral for fifteen years yesterday. My dad’s best friend’s father died a couple of weeks ago after being in hospital for a while, and my family and I went to go and pay our respects. It was a lovely service, filled with just as much happiness about his life as sadness that he had gone, and the weather was beautiful.
He was 92 when he died, just a month short of his 93rd birthday. That’s a good, long life for anyone these days. Rest in peace, George :)
