If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot.

I am home again at last. Now it is my time to grieve. While I was at home in Cali I was so busy, taking care of those who needed it, making sure the arrangements were flawless because I knew that my mother would get reports from her friends, the old ladies from the church, before my brother was lowered into the ground.
Time like these make me realize that being away is good. I miss California, I miss my friends, but it is nice to have the distance that Texas offers and the anticipation of going home again. I am not sure that I would be so happy to go back if I had to be there all the time. Family politics and needs can be so overwhelming.
We have a very diverse family in all ways, culturally, economically and racially. I was proud of both my nieces, the minister and the grieving daughter, both came through and did beautifully. The funeral was a family affair with the major parts of the ceremony conducted by family. What warmed my heart the most was the tribute from his friends and daughter's family. These people went to jail with him, drank and got high with him, ate, slept, clothed, fished, cooked with him. They knew the day to day Glenny. The loved him sooooo much. I publicly thanked them. Told them I appreciated that peace of mind they afforded my mother. She knew he was looked after and most important to her LOVED. Deeply and painfully they grieve his absence. They miss him, his grandchildren, especially the youngest miss him. She is 2 and she looked me in the eye and said where papa? I told her he is with ALLAH because he would have wanted me to say that to her. We buried him in a long tie and his friends put bow ties in the coffin with him. I rubbed his chest and his hands when I said goodbye.

Thank you to my orgers. People were asking me who I knew in australia when looking at the online guest book and I told them my friends are worldwide and loyal. Thank you all grouphug
