“I always wrote. I wrote from when I was 12. That was therapeutic for me in those days. I wrote things to get them out of feeling them, and onto paper. So writing in a way saved me, kept me company. I did the traditional thing with falling in love with words, reading books and underlining lines I liked and words I didn’t know.”
— Carrie Fisher (b. 1956 – d. 2016)
Such a big personality. I am at a loss for words.
I love reading obituaries. The good ones make me wish I’d known the deceased.
Angus Brian MacDonald wrote his own. It is funny and honest, one of the best I’ve ever read.
“My little dog Scarlett died Sept. 2013, and there really are no words to describe what a total destresser Scarlett was for me. So I guess if there’s a place in the after-life where little dogs and old dawgs go, then that’s where you’ll find me and Scarlett. Maybe I’ll see you all there sometime.”
Rest in peace Mr. MacDonald.
