As an “Uncle Wookie” I feel sorrow that this man died but it sounds like he had a good family, good friends. I can only hope that my obit will be written with this kind of love.
“One year later, Andy presented me with a hand made cardboard Certificate acknowledging that I had survived one year of friendship with him & was now his best friend. I still have that certificate in a box of accumulated mementos & other cherished items.”
I am simultaneously sad and happy that this man died.
What? Uncle Yeti is dead? Ffffffuuuuuuuuuuuuuucccccccckkkkkk!

First sentence pegs him as a Bleach fan.
…why?
Or a Last Starfighter fan.
Also implied elsewhere in this obit, a Jonathan Coulton fan.
“Death is a primitive concept. I prefer to think of them as battling evil, in another dimension.” –Grig (The Last Starfighter)
This person sounds like a god amongst men.
That’s the first obit I’ve read where I’m sorry the dude is gone.
Cool story bro.
Some more info from the guestbook on his obit.
“One year later, Andy presented me with a hand made cardboard Certificate acknowledging that I had survived one year of friendship with him & was now his best friend. I still have that certificate in a box of accumulated mementos & other cherished items.”
More proof that God takes the good ones young.
rest in peace man. this is like, one of us is gone. don’t even know the dude, but rest in peace.
Farewell sweet prince….
Vaya con Dios, Mijo.
Unless you’re Alliance.
Well, that is one acceptable obituary.
Lets hope people showed him that kind of affection while he was still alive.
