My Uncle Died

He passed on Sunday, in the evening. He had lung cancer. He was my favorite uncle. If you smoke…stop. If you don’t smoke, don’t start. Nuff said on that.

Suffice it to say, this “holiday weekend” has been anything but a…holiday. The funeral is Monday, the 14th. I absolutely hate funerals…always. I guess they help folks with closure, but my dearest grandmother didn’t have one, and what was good for her, is good for me (when I make my exit from this life, into the next).  Her thing was, “I’m going to be with the Lord, and I don’t need no long, drawn-0ut exit”. Amen.

Anyhow, pray for my family…as well as the many  families who lost loved ones recently. It’s always tough for those left behind…spouses in particular. It’s like your “main squeeze” is gone.

I’ll be back… :love

A Nappy Girl

    I am very sorry to hear about your loss. I shall pray for you and your family. I absolutely love your Grandmother’s way of thinking. I think every person should think in that way. Wise lady ^_^
