More than just a note seller – a good friend

July 31, 2009

I just found out my friend Don died. He was 67. I met him because he wanted to sell his promissory note and just spoke to his daughter today and they buried him yesterday. He was the one of coolest guys I knew. He was a boxing heavyweight champion by the age of 16, repaired a sunken boat in Florida and went lobster scuba diving, got a permit to hunt Kodiak Grizzly bears in Alaska. What an awesome guy. I really miss him. I wish I could call him up but I can’t. We used to talk on the phone for hours, but now we’ll just have to wait until I go to heaven too.

He was born in Florida near the original burger king, lived in Tennessee, and lived in Georgia until now.

Out of all of the life stories I’ve heard, his was one of the best.

I miss you Don.
