Another Tragedy

The week we met Dr. mickey my uncle passed away from lung cancer. This was very hard for everyone. My uncle Marc always had a smile on. He loved sports and could tell you all kinds of facts about football and the Cowboys.

When I think of Uncle Marc I always remember asking him to race me when I was a little boy. He had these new sneakers on and said he couldn't run in them. I asked why and he said because it would set the grass on fire and he'd already gotten in trouble for that once. I was so gullible. I said we could race on the street then. However, his answer was that it would also burn up the road. Well...I couldn't ask him to do something that would get him in trouble. I must have told everybody how my uncle actually had shoes that would burn up the road.
