Ben by Daniel Shelton for July 31, 2014

So much for the jogging and pushups.

I’ve had that happen, only I asked the wife how her husband was doing. Still looking for a rug to crawl under.

At a fifty year reunion, the ‘are they here’ question is going to be asked. sometimes the answer is no, and all parties need to don a thick skin for it.

now ben’s own mortality is comming to life …….

That is so sad! He had such anticipation… interesting – I’m the only one so far who has sympathy for him.

Aw,man! :(

i had that happen to me a couple of years ago (class of 1967), just thought i’d check on some old high school friends bu googling their friends. googled my old high school steady, up popped her obit from 1993..

That’s what happens when you don’t keep in touch. I’m waiting to hear about my 40th. I already know that we lost at least two classmates before I got out of college, plus there’s a whole scattering of them that have gone on before me since then.

I would’ve liked to see what she looked like. This is sad for sure…

One of our classmates didn’t even make it to our 10th Reunion. Not a car accident. He was in Australia and had a heart attack while golfing. He was barely 26.
