John's memorial service was this morning. I was so thankful the word was passed along about it, cause it wasnt mentioned in the paper. So many people came. The parking lot was completely full, with cars all down the streets...The church was filled, people on the 2nd level, outside through the side doors and in back...I hope he saw that :)
I was with Tina and started losing it before the service even started...That was so hard. Each time somebody would come up and talk about him, I'd cry. I've lost family before, and acquaintances, but never a good friend. It's so different than a family member. I dont know how to put it in words, but I'm sure most of you have had to go through that and know what I mean. I've never cried so much at a funeral, and I just lost my Grandpa in December...
TMC played "Lookin' Out My Back Door" cause he loved that song so much, and when I got in my car to follow the train to the cemetery, it was playing on the classic rock station (97.7)...I was in awe.
Then when I got home just now and turned on my random playlist of about 150 songs, "Wish You Were Here" by Pink Floyd came on, which was also played at the service. Oh, John. You're still around<3
Went to the cemetery after that for the burial...Also never seen a casket burial, only urns with ashes (Grandparents)
Home now, I had to change my shirt before going to Jared & Dakota's (it was wet, damn tears!). I'm sure I will see plenty of you there as well.
