My great-uncle Thomas passed away yesterday, and I mourn him. He was a treat for sure. Taught me how to squeeze someone's hand to be funny while shaking hands, also held me upside down as I screamed as a little guy. LOL good times. He'd ask me what was behind my ear, and it was never a quarter...Uncle Thomas either had a dollar of maybe even a five to surprise me. He lived a good life, and in life, was a kind, gentle, generous man. He shall be missed, and forever remembered in a great light by me as one day I perform the same little tricks to the delight of the little ones I encounter to honor his memory.
