A girl contacted me twice in my old site about finding a person she knew a long time ago–Scott Ramsden, my friend who died in March of ‘04 (if it is the same person). I googled his name and this site came up… she is trying to locate him and he is no longer.
Wednesday night at work someone called for Tom and I had to let that person know that Tom had “passed away”. I cannot believe I used that terminology, by the way.
Is that what it will be like a lot? Somebody is always bound to not know that someone has “passed”.
On a funny note, I read a little story in a Reader’s Digest or a journal akin that said approximetly this:
A woman was sending out wedding invitations for her sister to the groom’s side of the family. She decided to go the the philosophy of RSVPing if you are unable to come. The night or day of the wedding everyone had come except the groom’s Aunt Bertha*. Afterwards a couple of now-in-laws informed her that the reason Aunt Bertha had not responded was because she had died a few months prior. The poor now-in-laws had been forced to stare at Aunt Bertha’s empty plate and name tag the whole night yet were able to find humor in the situation, thankfully.
*names have been changed to protect the identity of the persons involved.

Mybe someone should tell this poor girl that he died?
Both my friend and I emailed her today and told her just that.
But I don’t know if she will email back, its really weird how she even contacted me.
This same girl contacted me too. She found a memorial that I put about Scott on my brothers website and she contacted him, he blew her off and then he felt bad. He gave me her email address, I sent an email saying I knew Scott, she wrote back inquiring to know more. I wrote back telling her some specific and painful details of his life and death . But I feel bad because I reached out to her and now she hasn’t written back. Maybe her dreams were better than the truth.
