a good man passes this way

Went to a funeral yesterday. Jimmy Y., 65 unexpectedly passed away Saturday. His wife, is a cousin of mine. Most every family gathering I've attended over the years Glady and Jimmy were two that I'd touch base with. I have a hard time keeping track of the spouses of my many cousins, Jimmy always greeted everyone with a big smile and a look on his face that he was truly happy to see you. In recent years he and Glady were quite attentive to Glady's parents, my Aunt Dot and Uncle Jack, who were needing assistance around their house even though they lived an hours drive away. They even were looking at a houses nearby to move to. Now I know I was extra fortunate to see and talk with Jimmy last summer at cousin Donny's summer get together. Jimmy will be missed by many people besides his family and I'll always be glad that I knew him.
