Condolence: Bill was my great friend. But I don't ever remember telling him that. The words spoken at a funeral are spoken too late for the man that is dead. What a wonderful thing it would be to visit your own funeral. To sit at the front and hear what is said. Maybe say a few words yourself. Bill and I grew old together. At times we laughed, we grew younger. If was here now, if he could hear what I say, I'd congratulate him on being a great man...and thank him for being a friend. --from "Waking Ned Devine"....one of the great Irish films of all time. Bill would have enjoyed it...
