Death Of A Friend
Created on 2008-09-10 05:32:43
Peter died early last week and I'm struggling coming to terms with it. A few days ago I wouldn't have been able to write this but I'm getting a little better.
The funeral was yesterday and while it was a celebration of Peter's life it was very disturbing for me. The strange thing is that I've been taken aback by my depth of emotion and how much it has effected me. I had not realized how much Peter had meant to me. I had not seen much of him in recent months as he had completely absorbed himself into his flying.
However, as difficult as it was, the funeral and the gathering after has been very therapeutic for me.
Good bye, Peter.
