Backwards Thinking

Posted June 12th, 2009.

I wish I could do something to change what was about to happen.  My brother in law had been picked to give the eulogy at my grandfather’s funeral.  He had a doctorate in speech communications from Cambridge or some place like that, so the family thought he would be the best.  I would have loved to give the eulogy for grandfather.  Yes, I may have searched the Internet to figure something out, but at least I knew the guy.  I want to convince my family that they are making a fairly big mistake.  At least let the guy be remembered for who he really is.
