Thank you for your friendship, Dudley.
Dudley was my late father’s younger brother. We didn’t see each other regularly because of distance, or maybe he avoided me (lol), but when we did connect, it felt comforting. He always told wonderful stories about my dad. Wish we had spent more time together… and that you’d kept that old-school wireless phone plugged in so you’d hear the ring 😉 Rest In Peace.
My buddy Dudley Curly’s Little Leprechaun we all will miss you your laugh your smile your stories and your friendship remember all the jars we had together rest in peace my friend.
