Today is Brian Cherry Sr. funeral. I'm going to it. This is going to be weird. I remember very specifically seeing him leave with his son this school year. He always had a strong handshake, and looked like an intimidating dude. That wasn't him though, he was one of the nicest guys I've ever met. He was going to meet his friend who was mentally

you seem to have a few things wrong here..robbie, brian's mentally challenged friend is who he is because of brian. robbie has tons of friends and knows probably every person in abington, people love him. brian gave robbie the confidence he needed to be the guy he is today. and having the plug pulled was what brian wanted but its not a good thing he died. its beyond a tragedy. so please don't make a comment about the situation if you don't know what you're talking about.

I guess I was a bit unclear on the details but I didnt mean it in a malitious way. It was what I hear and Im sorry I was wrong on the detail.

but firstly, I wasn't saying Brian should stay on life support. I think that's a fate worse than death. I think you misinterpreted "is a good thing." as me being glad for the death of someone who I had great respect for. His death is obviously a tragedy, and but it is my opinion that him surviving fully paralyzed and blind is horrific and I do not wish it on anyone.

and secondly I didnt comment on the situation I was noting my involvement in the funeral and some of the detail I knew. I wasnt trying to make a statement, infact if I was trying to make a statement it wouldnt be in a livejournal it would have been in a newspaper article, or something a little more relevant than a life blog.

First, to anonymous: having a good friend and knowing everyone in Abington are two completely different things. I hope you are not trying to say that because other people care about Robbie that it means he hasn't lost something very special.

Rob, how was the funeral? I know that's a silly question, but... I asked it anyway. Hope you are doing well! Miss you!
