ORIGINAL: sweetNsmartBBW I don't pretend to know the OP's motives here....but the thing is, nobody other than Him actually knows them either. Telling Him that He should be ashamed of Himself, or that His post are disgusting and distasteful - why? Death is part of life...it comes to all of us, and we all have lost loved ones...or will. Why is His sharing the details of the life He shared with them such a horrible thing? There are no words that adequately describe the pain of losing a loved one. As you point out, it is a pain we have all felt, or will. However, just as we do not know the OP's motives, neither do we know the rest of what is in his heart. We only know that which we see here. Consequently, while each of us may (and I hope do) have sympathy for his loss, none of us can share his grief or mourn with him. There is not enough of him here to permit this; that power is not given to us. Moreover, the OP has, in multiple posts, made reference to his loss. No matter the pain, is it right, or proper, that he persist in wringing sympathy from our hearts? Is it a fitting memorial to the departed to use their memories to strum the heartstrings of total strangers? Can the reasonable man read this eulogy, eloquent in its way, and not feel somehow exploited? I hope Bob will read this, measure my words, and find the strength within himself to bury his dead, and to rejoin the living.
