Wow. Excellent! Poor Darryl though. And it's a good thing these are characters and not real people, because then it's not so horrible that I thought "couldn't Darryl have walked away, and not Roy?" (Maybe it's still a little horrible.)
I am enjoying this whole story so much.

Creed won the pool at his own prior funeral. Awesome. And of course, Kevin would remember the winner!
You know, though, that this would be Chad's 3rd obit for Creed, right? Creed's got more lives than Angela's cat, I guess. ;)

I liked it but who was holding the gun?
Author's Response:
I don't know, but they were also holding an "I am Swedge" sign.
Thanks for the comment!

I hate you, larry. I need a tissue. *blows nose*
Author's Response:
Awww, you don't really hate me (I think).
I'd hand you a tissue but I'm late in responding so I hope you have one by now...

Oh wow, this one gave me chills! So perfect! She finally learned how to love. Oh. So sweet. I love how at peace she was at the moment of her death. That was such a nice touch.

Finally! Updates...ok to the chapter.
I love that Jan stayed with Michael and she was happy. That's so sweet and seems very possible with how S4 is going.
Author's Response:
Thanks, DM! You've been so supportive of this story. I'm glad you liked this chapter.

Wow, these are all so heartwarming. I love how you incorporate some humour into them, and the irony in Meredith's was just heartbreaking. They're all so unique, so simple, sad and sweet.
Author's Response: Thanks so much for the comment! What you said is exactly what I was going for, so that makes me incredibly happy. Thanks!

Oh no! Poor Darryl. Poor Roy. Two men saving for so long to go to Vegas. How sad for them. (But Pam's grandchildren made me smile.)
Author's Response: Thanks for the comment! Glad you liked granny Pam :)

Great twist. I love that Creed went to his own funeral the first time! Very creative.

Poor Roy! It's just too sad to think he never married.

Wow. That is a pretty sad & pathetic life for Roy.
Author's Response: He's not dead yet, though.

Wow Roy and Darryl still friends after all this time. That's pretty amazing.
Good job again Larry. This whole thing is so sad but you're doing a great job of showcasing each character in the perfect light. Very believable.

I don't watch Six Feet Under but this is definitely translatable in any way. It's so quietly, understatedly beautiful. (So what if Firefox is telling me "understatedly" isn't a word - it works.) And it's so sad, but somehow, I smile at the end of most of them anyway! Great job, and I can't wait to see the rest of it!
Author's Response: Yeah, I try to balance the sadness with a little bit of hope and happiness at the same time. I'm really glad you like these. Thanks for the review!

Oh my god. This was perfect! Wow, excellent job. I had to read it twice, and then I went "DUH!".

Now its official. Creed is dead. It was mistake last time. He was OLD.
Author's Response:
He was probably still trying to tell people he was 30 :)

These are all wonderful- concise (in keeping with the 55 word format), and yet vivid and full of detail. Stanley's is (sadly) unsurprising, Creed's is correctly offbeat, Meredith's is heartbreakingly ironic, Oscar's is just sad (although I had to laugh at Angela, as Oscar would have, himself), and Kelly's is sweet- both because of Ryan's poignant regret, and the fact that you snuck some Kandy in there. I look forward to the rest, even as I dread the idea of contemplating the loss of some of my more beloved characters.

You don't know what you've got till its gone. I'm so glad that Kelly and Andy got together, as it took way too long for Ryan to realize what he lost.

"She passed quietly, allowing one more smile as he held her hand." This was so beautifully sad. I'm glad they were together at the end.

I feel like Sia's 'Breathe Me' should be playing while I read these...
I love reading these and can't wait for more!

Kelly Bernard! I love the subtle kandy reference...and I do believe that despite what he claims Ryan must have strong feelings for Kelly or he wouldn't have put up with her so long.
