Just found out my buddie died in his sleep last Saturday..
He sent me an e-mail the night he passed. I knew it was some silly gun/gun-grabbing by liberal commie bs. I would have gotten to it by this weekend, and for the laugh, I might send a shot back.

George was one of the best, friendliest, generous, decent, loving guys I have ever had the pleasure to meet. I've only know him for 7 years or so. Alley called me and left a message saying she had news. I knew by her voice it was bad.

George was a fellow Apache, not many out here in Los Angeles. Despite bears not figuring in a positive manner in our mythology, George had the honor of his bearskin and danced at many dozens of healing celemonies.

I took him for granted thinking he is just a twenty minute drive from my house. Thinking if I wanted to talk to him I could do so anytime..There is never enough time.

Ah Ho, Mitak wi asi, may your journy through the southen door be quick, and may you have many relations to help guide you.

Goodbye my brother, please forgive my short comings..

2. I'm very sorry for the loss of your friend
I wish I knew something to say that would help. I don't, so I'll just say I'm sorry.

3. If it's any consolation, dying in my sleep is how I'd like to go...
Shocking for the ones you leave behind, but
merciful for the departed.

13. Very sorry for your loss. Safe journey, George-Get home soon..
A lifelong friend of my wife's family died in her sleep about 2 years ago...she was in her late 40's and was never sick. It just is that way sometimes.
