my old business partner passed away yesterday in his early 80's.
A blessing, had gone into dementia in local nursing home.
His wife passed away three months ago. He simply gave up, as happens.
He and I ran the town's main real estate/insurance agency for twenty years together.
A good man, with good values.
And he loved Fordhook lima beans.
He also loved to smoke two packs a day and drink six cups of coffee with two teaspoons of sugar in each one, every day.
And he made it into his mid 80's.
He had a long and good life and you can't ask for more than that.
had a memorial all set for wife, now it will be for both of them.
worst part about getting older is losing your friends and family.
just makes you appreciate every day
