Dead

I had a friend who was rotund. He was pretty funny and always had an opinion. He was successful. I was impressed by many of the pictures in his office because there he was with President Regan, various movie stars, a bunch of important local folks.

We used to meet most mornings for coffee along with a few others and solve the problems of the world. I remember one morning he was telling us about his latest doctors appointment. He said, "What do you do if your doctor tells you to lose weight? Get a new doctor!"

We laughed.

He died while having surgery to open clogged carotid arteries.
