I”m going to miss him terribly, just as I miss Johnny.
How can one get as emotional over a fellow like Mr. Nelson, who is so very important, so very important that he thinks he is the most important person Mr. Rudd should consult?
I felt so much more empathy for relatively unassuming, self deprecating and therefore more loveable souls such as our Petey and our Johnny.
Sniff.
