Death

JUST turned 70 myself. Called up my 84 year old aunt who sounds like she's 40 and "mock sarcasm" "thanked" her for the birthday card "reminding me I'm an old guy" I try not to dwell, though I've sure lost friends, and my Dad (her brother) only lived to 71

I remember my Aunt Daisy, Daddy's sister constantly telling him as he got closer and closer to 60 that he was gonna die at 60 like his father. She was a mean one. He lived to be 74. Died in late December, 1998. He really wanted to see the year 2000. But he at 60 and I at 20.........I would not have jumped on him with two of me. He was a tough old dude. Seen it in action too. He had zero problem layin it down when he thought somebody was in the wrong. I miss him every single day. I look forward to the day I can shake his hand again.
