Amen, he will be missed. He's in a much better place now.

Do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am in a thousand winds that blow,
I am the softly falling snow.
I am the gentle showers of rain,
I am the fields of ripening grain.
I am in the morning hush,
I am in the graceful rush
Of beautiful birds in circling flight,
I am the starshine of the night.
I am in the flowers that bloom,
I am in a quiet room.
I am in the birds that sing,
I am in each lovely thing.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there. I do not die.
(Mary Elizabeth Frye, 1930)

To Our Good Friend OBG
Heres a toast
OBG, although we never met we're sure gonna miss ya
pull up a stump the sky's gonna kiss ya
throw a log on the fire, of this we'll never tire
sit a spell and tell a tale,I bet it's a whopper of a whale
So Long Old Bald Guy
Mike

"For what is it to die but to stand naked
in the wind and to melt into the sun?
And what is it to cease breathing, but to
free the breath from its restless tides, that
it may rise and expand and seek God unencumbered?
Only when you drink from the river of silence shall you indeed sing.
And when you have reached the mountain top, then you shall begin to climb.
And when the earth shall claim your limbs, then shall you truly dance."
(Kahlil Gibran - "The Prophet")

Does anyone know if there was a printed obituary anywhere? I looked, but couldn't find one.
