  • "DECEASED
    RETURN TO SENDER"


    This is certainly not the kind of Christmas card one likes to get, nor a way to find out that someone you loved and cared about has died.


    I should have been in better contact.  Made a call or two between the holidays, sent a card......something!  I didn't.  But now, now I vow to never let this happen again and I will keep in better contact with those I know and love who live so far away.


    I couldn't get a lot of information from his case manager, other than the fact that he died on October 23, 2004 at the Maitri Hospice.  After an exhaustive search on the internet I was not able to find an obituary either.



    Gary Clute, you were a dear, sweet man and my life is better for having known you.  May you have the Peace and Love you so much deserve and strived for in your life.  I'll never forget you and hope that you and Lucy are together again.  She was a wonderful dog and a true and faithful companion.  I'm sorry I wasn't a better friend.  Thank you for opening your heart and home to me on several occasions.  You were a TRUE FRIEND!  Rest in Peace and know you are LOVED.

What?

I AM still paranoid,
though reasons changed.
I'm paranoid that they'll figure out the language
and patterns of
me,
and I'll forget to rea

Then I'll just be textbook.
