Man, what a great life he lived!

I wonder if they'll cremate him?

Reminds me of why they don't throw rice at weddings any more.
Something to do with what happens when birds eat it.

Is Throwing Rice at Weddings Bad for Birds?

Rumor: Wedding guests should refrain from throwing rice at newly-wedded couples because the rice kills birds who eat it.

Birds eat rice and other grains as part of their normal diet.
Amazing how these things keep getting around.

Just a note of non importance it just struck me, tomorrow I'll be headed up by Roy Jacksons stomping grounds to look at a tractor.
A high hour NH 8160, it's just a bit past Bethel Vt.

Roy is sure missed, one of the early TBN folks.
RIP Roy
