My Good Bye To The Exile In Portales

I broke out the Kippa and Tallit..................It was important to me that I do this.
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..................

Here's to you my dear friend. Someday.....at Fiddler's Green

A couple of poignant goodbyes from two of us who were mentored by Buck had excellent fairwells as well
