So far this year already I've seen four of my classmates in
the obits.
Strange thing. at least 12 of us have lost our wives too.
That's just from the bunch of us that hung out together.

I tried to cash my chips in when I was 68, same age my wife died.
One of these times they'll bag me too. Things are all ready and waiting.

Reading the paper every morning I see there's a whole lotta dying
going on. Seems rather popular if that's the word for it. Way too many
young one's listed. House keeper's 40 y/o niece will be buried in the morning.
Another 21y.o boy was listed in the same paper. Real shame.

We enjoyed a nice steak dinner tonight, good company too. A bit
noisy for conversation though.
