Farewell, TaTa

I would rather be ashes than dust! I would rather that my spark should burn out in a brilliant blaze than it should be stifled by dry-rot. I would rather be a superb meteor, every atom of me in magnificent glow, than a sleepy and permanent planet. The proper function of man is to live, not exist. I shall not waste my days in trying to prolong them, I shall use my time.

– Jack London's "Credo"

and so we bid our friend adieu today during a moving ceremony held at the SF yacht club along the bay.

lots of tears, lots of pictures, lots of stories, lot of memories...

and lots of inspiration.

the inspiration to go forward and carry with us the many positive characteristics our compadre brought to this world.

the inspiration to push life a little further, to reach out and connect a little more, to have fun like there's no tomorrow, and to cherish our family and friends like never before.

the inpsiration to make our time on this planet count as much as possible.

and the inspiration to Never Forget Jerry Tuttle...
