And when I'm dead...dead and gone.... (page 4)

Moe: "*SOB*, there goes my dominoes partner!"

Bleep: "You know what they say about those Apostate Dubs."

Ahhhhhhh, one group we've all forgotten to mention:

Our former elders: "Thank God."

Awwwwwwww Six, I would miss you if you were gone!

I know my girl would be calling for "mama" for a few days. My parents would cry. My dad would actually be a mess. My sibs would not care. I have been JW so long we severed emotional ties and my brother, even though we speak, just has no connection with anyone.

I guess I can't imagine anyone missing me for too long except my parents. In time, my girl would forget me, she is only 14 months old.

Dear Sally,

In time, my girl would forget me, she is only 14 months old.

Your little girl would forget you actively, imho,..........but the start you've given her - never. You are shaping her through your love and attention. The emotions you've given her are instilled upon her, for good or bad. If you've instilled positive ones..........she will most likely wear them proudly. If you've instilled negative ones (which I doubt) - she'll have to fight to overcome them.

She will remember you in a style, because you're shaping her image of the world.

I got mixed results

Don't you all think asking while we are alive what they will say about us isn't exactly the truth? The fact is you're not dead. If you were dead you'd be lifted to saint status. Sure those might be things they think about you...but they would never SAY them. The dead have an advantage in that we are no longer allowed to speak ill of them. For those of you who did ask the living what they would say, it's a rough guesstimate at best, but when you are actually gone they will miss your morbid little selves.

this one is priceless too

My family would miss the hell out of me.

Grandma: Oh well, Jehovah knew he had a god heart and knew that he did not want to do those things with those men. I'll see him in the new system.

Mother: I hope I see him in the new system. But if not, I'll make another one just like him! Because in the New system, vaginas are like xerox machines and I will not feel bad at all because there is no sadness in the New World (*farts*)

Father: Who will i bug about weird stuff now?

Friends: Who? Oh him?! he owes me some money... oh wait, I owe him some money.... oh well, he's probably in a happier place..away from my wallet.

Lovahs: You bastard! I knew there was someone else!

LOL, all in all I just hope people move on and can be happy without me. Lord knows the last thing I wanna think about at death is how bad it will hurt others.

I can only hope to be forgotten. I have been longing for anonymity most of my life. Just not who I was born to be.

For me it is the mirror image of this thought where I can see my refection.

It is who I will remember that matters to me. Those whom I carry in my memory, and in my heart.

And when I'm dead...dead and gone....
