My special needs brother isn't doing too well mentally but his body seems to be going strong. I've pretty much finished his eulogy but his obituary is a little different. I want it to be humorous and to give the people reading it a smile and a desire to know him. This might be a work in progress because I doubt I'll get it done tonight.
I'm thinking the obit should start something like this:
I have sad new for all of the friends of BR, he passed away on this date from these causes. I say friends because out of all of the people that BR met their was a small handful that he didn't like. Just about everyone was his friend and every woman was his future wife. He was a major flirt and the best way to get him to stop was to tell him that you have bills.
BR loved to compete, he has too many Special Olympics medals to count. He competed in swimming, track and field, bowling, skiing, and even volleyball. When he was in the martial arts he practiced like he competed; it was a competition, if the opponent didn't know then BR would show them. BR did achieve the rank of Black Belt in Tae Kwon Do and would gladly tell you.
BR did become an Eagle Scout in the Boy Scouts and he even had the coveted Order of the Arrow.
That's it for now, maybe more tomorrow.
