Just a quick and heartfelt thanks Thanks you guys, for the hugs and advice. It really helped. The consensus is that I gave a great eulogy to a great friend, and this eulogy was able to ease the pain of a lousy day. I kept coming back to that thread and re-reading some really helpful advice. So, yeah, thanks. Really.

I'm so glad to hear this; there's not much that can lighten the initial blow of grief, and every bit helps.

Here's sending healing thoughts to you, richat, and honoring you for a kindness to your friend's family and to his memory.

Well done. It's a tough job, but you can give yourself a pat on the back for doing it right.

A truly painful, but truly wonderful gift to someone, whom I can only imagine, must have been an incredible person.

I'm sure it was hard to do, but in a way made you feel better. I'm still sorry for the loss of your friend.
