Uncle Charlie

I would like to say goodbye to my Uncle Charlie who died tonight. He was a very cool guy. He was in WWII, though I don’t know what he did. He once popped a balloon of mine with his cigarette.

He was wry and a great friend to my parents. He was earthy and worldly and a rogue.
He had a hard bitten but light hearted bead on life. He was an Irishman with the best of them.

R.I.P. or Have a good time Uncle Charlie.

I'm sorry, honey pie. It's always a loss, even if they're old, or sick, or you expected it. A star dims.
