I said the Kaddish from The Prayer Book For Jewish Personnel Of The Armed Of The United States.
This Prayer Book belonged to my Dad and I wear his Kippa and Tallit.
I bought a good cigar and a bottle of The Glenlivet.............
Buck's Sons, Commander Pennington and Major Pennington toasted with a 15 year old single malt and I used a 12 year old one. It is my favourite scotch.
The Lexicans all understand this..................

Buck Pennington touched many of us with his humor and his ability with the written word and his penchant for perfect grammar..............................

It was on your blog that I first read of Buck's passing.
I can't remember exactly where his (blog)path and mind first crossed, but we became fast friends and through his blog I was introduced to many others.
Both Buck and Lex led me to many others as well.
Bless you my friend for this kind gesture. I discovered the news upon awakening in Denver from a post by Chris on FB. That hoetl room was pretty dusty. This one hurts. Miss ya Buck. RIP.
I had to Charles. It was the right thing to do in honor of our friend.
I did have the same problem with dust all day.
It was one year ago today... I've spent many a night and day thinking about my relationship with my father and how I wished I had spent more time with him. I wished we had lived closer... wished he had some family that lived closer. I'm comforted by the fact that my father had so many wonderful friends to share his passions with. Thank you for being part of his life.
