2 emotional days
Monday and Tuesday where very emotional times. We celebrated the life and times of Jonny Sadassy and said our final good byes.
The send off for Jonny way amazing. 600 people came to celebrate his life and in true Jonny style they where people of all ages and from as may different backgrounds as you can imagine. Jonny will be missed by alot of people It was the sort of thing he would having been kicking him self for missing. Lots of tears, laughter, beautiful readings music and songs. Mims reading I found particularly moving and she was very strong and beautiful reading it in front of so any.
The crematorium service was of a more of a cathartic experience and a chance to properly say good bye. It was very touching and moving. Barb was amazing mixing humor sentiment and emotion in a simple farewell. Although it was such a sad occasion it was really nice to spend some time with people I don’t get to see much of any more. I love Barb and it was a privilege to spend some quite time talking to her while she wrote her speech and told me stories of the life of her son.
I realized why his death has hit me so hard.
I grew up with very few close friends. Being home schooled I wasn’t typical in having a gang of mates I had a few local friends but on the whole I would look forward to my close friends coming to visit. Jonny really was one of the people who informed my childhood and was there for some of the happiest times of my life. I will miss these care free childhood days for the rest of my life and it’s devastating not to be able to sit down with Jon and recount these memories with him. In losing him I have lost a part of my past as well.
I didn’t know him in the same way alot of people knew him at the services. I grew up with Jonny and knew him as a boy but lose touch more and more as we grew up. I want to remember him as a whole. It’s important to capture in my mind the totality of the person who has gone. Forgive and them all their negative aspects but don’t forget them as that is a part of their totality. I will remember all aspects of Jonny not only the good points and in doing so I a hope a small part of him will live on in my memories.
