Thanks to all, I am sure they would say that.

We laid him to rest today, I was an honorary pallbearer.
His family were the main pallbearers.
I have been a pallbearer for a lot of friends and most of my family.
I consider it an honor to be asked but today was different.
I helped carry my Grand Parents, my Mother & my Brother, but this time
it was much harder.
I useually do very well at funerals but today I wasn't quite as strong as I thought I was.
I am not ashamed, nor do I care what others may have thought.
He was as close as family for a good part of my life.
He was my first, best friend!

He is close to our family plots so I will tend his just as I do ours and no one else ever needs to know.

Sorry and thank you .
I just had to get it out.

TOM. More prayers sent friend. I buried my best friend Tank April 20 last year. I stood up for him when he married, he stood up for me when I married. I made most of the arrangements for his funeral and was a pall bearer too. I think of him daily. I do know how you feel. Charlie  :( :( :( :( :( :(
