Eddie's Funeral

Just got back from Eddie's funeral...you know, the head prep cook I mentioned a few weeks earlier? Man, that's some depressing stuff. I listened to the eulogy, met with some old friends, people I used to work with a while back, caught up with his son, who is the spitting image of this great man. But I guess the hardest part was the viewing: not necessarily the fact that I'm staring at a dead body, but just the mere thought that I'm staring at an empty shell that was once a proud worker, a good friend, a loving father and husband, but most importantly, a man loved by hundreds of people who agree that his time was cut too short. Let me tell you, I had nothing but the most respect and admiration for this man. Even in his 60's, he worked harder and moved faster than a lot of the fools that apply here. I don't mean to rant like this at all, but you have to understand: this was the last day that I saw him in person. And I do know one thing that I can never accomplish no matter how many years I'll put into this company that he did: he wasn't just an asset to the company, he was a Legend.
