15. When did something most recently stir you to tears? My neighbor from when
I was a kid died this week. He was still living next to my mom. he called me
to check on me a lot when my dad died. We played together every day when I was
a kid. I am not sure if I have e ever mentioned him in one of our questions, but
a kid. I am not sure if I have e ever mentioned him in one of our questions, but
his name is Shannon. We rode bikes and played in the woods, climbed trees.
My best memories of being a kid have him in them. He invited Josh to watch
movies with him a couple of years ago. Just the guys. I am so glad Josh had that
time with my friend. Shannon was like a brother to me. He will be missed.
He had a blood clot go to his heart and killed him. I am going to his funeral
on Monday. :(
I am so sorry for the loss of your childhood friend.
ReplyDeleteI loved Four Winds. Did you?

Sorry for your loss. I'm glad you had such a good friend in your life.
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry for the loss of your dear childhood friend. What a blessing to still have had him in your life and that he included Josh in the friendship, too. I enjoyed your answers. Realized I read #5 wrong when I answered it. I would not leave anything behind is what I meant!! Have a good week!
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry for the loss of your friend, but glad you had him in your life. It sounds like you have a lot of wonderful memories to hold on to. Sending prayers and (((hugs))).
ReplyDeleteSo So sorry about shannon :(
ReplyDeleteI miss baseball DESPERATELY, but the more I read about it, the more I'm on the side of the players. Remember, just about every owner gets tax breaks from the community where they have a park. That's because teams provide jobs -- from parking lot attendants to the guy who sells foam "#1" fingers. That makes their lockout stance an insult to all of us who subsidize them. (Boo owners!)
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear about your friend. It's always sad to say goodbye, but Shannon was your touchstone! My heart goes out to you.
