RE: "Ode to Gray Skelton, my friend and Mentor" may he rest in peace.

in #writing7 years ago

Aw man, I am so saddened by your loss Jerry. Now I know why I hadn't heard of you and decided to see. My condolences on your loss. I'd this that friend that you would take to his doctor appointment's?

Sort:  

No Nikki, that is my friend Don, who is a neighbor from my previous address.
This is a friend I've known a few years less than that, who had been hosting the
"Tuesday Sing Thing" at his home in Marietta about 16 miles north of here . I started
Attending that, sporadically, about 3 yrs ago. During that time he has helped me financially,
emotionally/spiritually and has just been a good friend.
He shall be missed by many @coquiunlimited.

Now those kinds of friend's are hard to come by!

YOOOOooo just said a mouthful! I try to be that kind of friend, but I am
Not financially able to help much of anyone, not right now anyway.
I give rides to my neighbors when asked or when needed,
I'll try to counsel with good advice, to the best of my
Ability and experience, but I confess I have little
Patience for someone who won't listen to said
Advice, won't take it to heart. When I see that,
I know I am wasting my time, and I for one,
Do not have time to waste. I am 62 after
All, and I have my own problems.
Where would I be if Gray had
Taken that attitude with
Me? Luckily, I always
Heeded his
Advice.
