It's Not A Real Person

Well, I got my answer.  Horace Raddish is not a real person.  A reader of my blog (guest/friend Dave Laski) went to Notre Dame High School.  He was a freshman when Ray was a senior.  He saw my post and sent me an email that he was on the year book committee and they had people submit "silly" names for someone and found a picture from the 1950's year book.  Horace Raddish won for the fake name and they used the picture from the 50's.  How ironic is that!?  Within less than 24 hours I got my answer to the oddest question I could even come up with.  Scratch that one off the list I have for Ray.

Today Marguerite and I went to see the Lakeshore Community Chorus at the Saugatuck Center for the Arts.  It was fantastic.  As I listened I thought to myself that they should do a Christmas concert.  Well guess what?!  They are.  Who knew.

This was the third time I have sat in the art center since Ray died.  I couldn't help but get teary eyed sitting there.  I thought about all the times we sat there and watched shows together.  Now he wasn't there for me to put my arm around his seat.  I miss that.  I miss his companionship.  A partner.  I miss it terribly.  I miss HIM terribly.

We are going to Friedl's for dinner tonight.  She's back in town so you'll probably be seeing her name on here a lot again.  In two months she and I will be in Vienna!!!  - Jimmy
