All previous posts of essays from the draft version of Viking Funeral (the book) have been removed for the first round of editing. I posted the raw essays to illicit input from the world who knew Dave beyond those I knew. With tens of thousands of reads and more than 400 people reaching out to me, introducing themselves, and mostly confirming the stories I had posted more so than sharing new information with me, other than further validation what a lovely human Dave was to everyone.
Thank you all for your comments and encouragement. I know Dave meant a great deal to you, but you all mean the world to me as I move forward with the last chapters, tightening up the story honoring Dave. I could not have done it without your help. I especially loved laughing with so very many of you. I am eternally grateful. XO M
So happy for you Mardi as you finish up your labor of love…looking forward to seeing your book published…Thank you for the pure joy, laughs and love that you have shared with us. xo xo
