I heard a news story one time about a book of Fauxbituaries (fake obituaries) and I decided I'd take a stab at them. a few moments to live life through someone else's eyes. Many of these will be written in the first person, because I just think it'd be interesting to explore what someone would write about themselves. Here goes Number 1.
Nelson O'bandy
I Nelson O'bandy have died. I was 85, single, forgotten by many and remembered by a small few. I was mean old son of a gun. I didn't even show up at my own mother's funeral. Like this I've committed many other acts that even I cannot forgive or excuse. I have 15 children, but not one of them knows me as a father. I never paid child support, never even returned the phone calls of their mothers. I only held one job for any length of time, and I may have set a record for drinking. For some reason, may it was guilt, I don't know, I sacrificed my life to push a little boy out of the way of a car. If you ever read this young man, don't waste your life as I did. Live it well and with Family and Friends. In lieu of flowers, donations may be sent to the boy I gave my life to, Joshua Cain 121 Basket Street Omaha Nebraska. Joshua, Don't be like me..
