A dismal evening..

[dansewithme]

This evening I attended a wake. He was a close friend of the family's. His wife used to be my old horse trainer; yes I used to ride horses. His daughter used to be my best friend, and his son is one of my brother's good friends and used to be roommate. He was shot three times by his father-in-law. When my mother told me the news on Friday, I was ok

sorry about the loss.
It bothered me as well when people wore jeans to my fathers funeral, but then again it's texas and who didn't wear jeans. Oh well this really didn't have a point, but hope you are okay.♥

Thank you Maggie.
I think a lot of people need a dose of "class" and "manners" nowadays.
And yes, I'm just dandy.

My condolences to whoever they are owed to.

But on lighter note, people better dress right at OUR (I go if you go) funeral. However I dont think we will have a problem with that seeing as our parents always dress appropriately.

<3 you more that GOD!

I enjoy reading your journal. There is lots of wonderful insight, which lets face it, is extremely rare to find in someones eljay.

Wakes are always awkward. I've never been one to cry at death, because after all, it is a natural state that everyone reaches at on point or another. My grandmother died seven years ago, and i remember feeling this profound amount of guilt for not being upset. When we went to her wake my uncle said something i'll never forget. Millie Mom was a rock. Those simple words instantly brought tears to my eyes.

I'm sorry to hear of your loss. Death is always tragic, but i believe it is hopeful as well.
