An uncle died this past Tuesday

His death notice was in the daily paper today, I had to find it by looking under deaths by town.

I never knew his last name. He was always Uncle Johnny. He was my mom's older half brother. My mom's mom was a widow that remarried.

My mom's dad was a drunk, he was a mean drunk.

I'm glad being a mean drunk doesn't run in the family.

I'm a happy drunk.
