The Funeral Service for Jim Runnels

[cadfael]

The Service for Jim was held today. While it was very dignified and every aspect of his life was represented, Jim was in the back of the room, pointing his finger at us saying, "do it right the next time."

And indeed, we must have a celebration of his life for our community. Many Pagans said that before leaving the chapel. I spoke with several of the Brothers of the Key and we will begin planning the kind of celebration that Jim would approve of. It will need to involve Port wine and Bushmill's (Protestant) liquor, and certainly lots of Jim Morrison music.

Jim will be missed.

sorry to have missed his funeral, I overslept this morning.

He was a good man who always represented the life of the party to me. Also he always had a damn good time despite what others were doing. I hope I have even half of his vibrancy in the light of his struggles when I get older.

I regret that I had to miss the service yesterday. As I said before, I have known Jim for longer than anyone in B*. He was always passionate about *everything*. I can totally see him making a fuss for having too solumn of a service. The celebration sound right up his alley, and I would love to make that one, if it is to be open to others outside of the B.O.K.

Yes, it will be a very inclusive, community event. Just like Jim!
