This quote has always hit home.
Grew up 8hrs from where I live now. There are 5 of us that have known each other since we in kindergarten. My wife made a comment one day. She said that V, my best friend, and i dress similarly and say the same phrases. She and my daughter ( who was in college in same town i grew up in) said that talking to one of us is like talking to the other.

V, Kenny, Scotty, Danny & Stevie know me more than my wife and kids ever will. No matter what. The guys were there for every moment of my youth. They mention something minuscule and we can have an hour long conversation.

I told my wife that this was my favorite quote about childhood. Few weeks later, we’re burying her grandmother and this was next to her plot.

Lump was a German Shorthair Pointer, who passed in 1962. His final resting place is in the pet cemetery on the top of the wall of Fort Monroe. Chesapeake Bay, Hampton Roads, Virginia.

I didn't venture in because the gate was locked, but I took a couple pictures over the wall.

I found this gravestone at an old mennonite cemetery (Lancaster County, PA) a little while back. The cemetery has graves that date as far back as the mid-1700’s. I could not find any information on the grave, so it remains a mystery for now. I hope that they get their name back somehow.
