Prompt # 44 What will they say about you after you're gone? Prompt # 44 What will they say about you after you're gone?
I've wondered about my eulogy, about what people will say to sum up my life. I remember the one given at my father's funeral. I can remember feeling very proud of how Commissioner Underhill spoke of him. If my own eulogy is half what my father's was then I will be proud.
I would hope that people would remember that I did my duty, that I was a good police officer. I hope they would remember me as a good man and that they'd feel able to say that. I am sure that they will say other things about me, talk about my flaws, the things I should have done. They might wonder about some of the actions I did in my life.
I would hope that whatever they say will be positive. I've tried to live as best i can and I hope that people would recognise that. I suppose I just hope that people would remember me, talk about me. If they have something to say then that;s not a bad thing, at least I'd be remembered.
