Subject: RE: Obit: My Beloved Wife Robi
I just got back from Robi's Memorial Celebration (I refuse to use the "F" word). There was song, joy and friendship. A funeral parlor is an unusual place to hear a sea chantey, but I lead her favorite (Ben Backstay) to an enthusiastic crowd. Later, at the dinner (OOFF! So much food!) we had a mini chantey sing. We had Weapons of Musical Destruction and audience participation! I got several comments where folks said that I throw a great funeral Memorial Celebration.

My family, my friends, my co-workers & my cats will get me thru this.

Pix (scads of them) will be posted shortly.
