How to honor the fallen?

[mscuddy]

Well another friend bit the dust, died an ueventfull death in a hospital bed, surrounded by his family.

So many are gone now, just the memories left of what was once. How do you honor your closest friends? Ones that you never thougt would leave?

Do you drink toast? Go to where you once rode? Visit the grave? I'm lost anymore, what to do, how to honor them. My last road dog has taken the big dirt nap. There's no more tears left. No more.

I'm sure those dudes would want you to live the best you can Cuddy. That's what I would want. Throw a big f*cking party and everybody get wasted in my memory. Have a blast and tell some stories, and maybe tell some lies, and have fun and tip a few in my memory. Can't think of a better honor than that.

I figure why wait. I'm gonna get started right now.

Here's to George!

Buz man, I'd buy you one if you were here! The way I have been working lately, I'm half dead already! I need to retire again!

Sorry to hear that Matt. I've lost 3 very close friends over the years, and I have no idea what to tell you. One thing that I am sure of, they live on, somewhere, and that you will be with them again in another place. Enjoy your time here and now, and look forward to your time there.

Are you still thinking of coming to Ft. Liquordale this Winter? Me and the kid are moving to our new house next Saturday and we'll have a very nice guest room. Hey, maybe we can cut a deal where I get the tickets and you spend some time on my Yamaha 2-Smoke! The garage is going to need some breaking in!

Thanks guys, kind of sucks when you're the only one left. When someonle this close croaks, memories and stuff that happened on rides, getting drunk and raising hell, you know, stuff only you and your buddy can laugh about are lost just to me now. These last few years have been some kinda trip through hell. Oh well, that's life, eh?
