Happy belated birthday, Adam! This poem is so lovely and it reminded me of the eulogy I wrote for my mom's funeral in which I not only told stories about her, but talked about the stories she loved to tell. You are absolutely right. In the end, it's our stories that live on. I hope the ones about me make people laugh uproariously.
Gotta love a bracing melancholy - it's character building!
