Going out with a laugh

[roogles]

A very close friend of mine lost his mother on Monday.

I will be making the trip to Cincinnati this weekend to attend her funeral.

Although I never met her, I couldn't help but grin like an idiot at her obituary...

It begins...

Barbara B. Lewin was shot to death by a jealous wife. Not really, but this is how she wanted the recounting of her life to start.

The entirety can be found here - Barbara Lewin Obituary

It explains a lot about where his personality came from...


I hope that I have the good sense to impart some humour when my time comes as well.

You and me too, Brother!

Sorry for your friend's loss and have a safe trip.

What a marvellously spirited woman, sorry for your loss, journey well and in safety.

I can only imagine what the clowns around here will want in their epitaphs and inscribed on headstones.

Humor is awesome, especially when it's related to something typically unhumorous. Shakes things up and keeps it real.

Sounds like she had a great personality and really enjoyed life. Didn't take life too seriously. I wish I could get my personality more in line with hers!

That is fantastic!

My condolences to your friend.

I grew up in an Irish catholic house. Death was a celebration of life, and a life without humor wasn't life. Condolences to the family and the jealous wives.
