This was in my mailbox today:
It’s a paper announcing the memorial service of my neighbor. I knew him. He was so friendly, and was always sitting in a lawn chair in his driveway – usually next to a cat.
I posted about him a year and a half ago.
I’m sorry to hear that he has died. I am so glad that someone put this flyer in my mailbox. What a nice idea. Now instead of me just wondering why I never see Dave in his driveway any more, I know why.
I wish I could go to his memorial service, but… wait… I just looked at the address of that place. It’s right down the street from school. Maybe I COULD go. I’d have to have coverage before and after lunch…. I’m going to look into it.
Oh, I am so glad that they put those flyers out. That was smart of his family to do that – I’ve not heard of that before.
I’m also glad that you are someone who connected with him – you are a good neighbor.
This is pretty smart – why don’t more folks do that for their neighbors, I wonder? Hope you can finagle coverage so you can attend, too. God bless him…
