Welcoming the Declining Years

I was greeted at my office this morning by the tones of a mournful dirge and a dozen black and green balloons. Touched at their thoughtfulness, I felt compelled to express gratitude to my coworkers:

To those who have so thoughtfully adorned my tomb:

Thank you for your kindness and sensitivity at this time of mourning. The knowledge that my grief is felt by others, that I am not alone in my heavy heart in these dark days, provides immeasurable solace to my weary limbs and aching bones. Your sympathy and compassion have lifted my retiring soul, and during my declining years, the memory of your sharing in my bereavement will continue to console my slumping frame and degenerating wits.

With Deepest Gratitude,

Jeff
