I lost another friend to lung cancer yesterday. I've known Rodney for 25 years or more. He told me he regretted ever taking up smoking, and did give up a few years ago, but alas, the damage was done.

Still, he had made his peace with God and went quickly.
Funeral is on Monday, it will be a big one. He was a councillor in local government, always controversial, always standing up for what was right as he saw it. He has a wonderful wife and three billie-lids.

Kinda wish I had a kilt in that beautiful "Dark Isle" tartan for the occassion.
