On the loss of friends

Message Author
PostPosted: Fri Mar 28, 2008 3:53 am

I lost a good friend a few days ago. I'd known him for several years, ever since I came to New England. Though he had his faults in full measure, as we all do, he was a good and honorable man who was always quick with a smile or to lend a hand. Sadly, he passed away early Monday morning, at the age of 53. The world will be a smaller place without him in it.

I'm not the prayin' sort myself, but I've had a few words with the man upstairs on this. If you could spare a moment out of your busy day to give a quick word or a kind thought for my friend 'Rotten' Richard Hayes, I'd be most grateful. He deserved far better from life than what he got.

RIP, Brother. I'll see you in the wind.

Wulf I am so sorry about your friend. May he rest in peace. It is so hard when we lose those we love and no words can take away the hurt. I too lost a very dear friend a few weeks ago-she was only 44 years old and was the kindest person I have ever known and one of my closest friends.

Thanks, y'all.

Much of his family and many of his 'friends' have come along with hollow words, or just remained silent, despite their role in his demise. I posted here, so that someone other than myself would remember Rich, not as people say, but as he was. Thanks again.
