Comment:

My landlord, who came to be my friend, died peacefully in his sleep early Wednesday morning. He was 60 years old.
The coroner chalked it up to natural causes and didn't conduct an autopsy. He had hip replacement surgery a few weeks before. The expression on his face seemed to indicate he never new what hit him (probably a blood clot to the brain). This mix, which includes many songs he liked (or are by artists he liked). The opener was one he had told me he wanted to use at his funeral (just like the Big Chill). Here's to the good times we spent together Richard, I'll truly miss you.

This world (and does) work for me. Sorry for your loss, Joe. Fine tribute.
