I searched the net and found the funeral arrangements of my childhood friend. He died Sunday, so I took his uncle-in-law who is a baptist preacher with me to visit the family before the memorial speach. He is 92 years old and still going strong. The bros and sisters were very nice to us. I saw several that I hadn't seen in 30 years. His brother had died a few weeks before this with cancer and he had some rare disease I never heard of before. I didn't get to see the body of my friend, he was cremated. This was what I found on the net.
