I have the text of a different Obit, from a Seward, AK paper, so I'll try to post it.
Yes that seems to be readable! I don't care for the photo quite as much, but it is a pretty good one of him. He was laughing out on our deck. So that's good.

Yes, Penny, this one reads better. I have that picture of Bill in Nikiski if you want to to send it back to you Email to post, or post it myself in Parking Lot. Let me know, if you do. It's a wonderful photo and shows that great smile of his.
Here's a link to Penny's first thread about the obit and explanation of the pic: http://davesgarden.com/s/344748.html
Penny, thanks for sharing....Bill sounds like a great guy...enjoy the solitude in OR. Jo
Penny, what a nice write up of your husband Bill.
Such a nice obit. Makes me want to write one up for myself...
LOL, GrannyLois! Makes me want the author of this one to write one up for myself! Newspapers sure don't give you much room, but what a wonderful job this person did ~ letting the reader in on who Bill was in that short span. I feel like I know so much about him now ~ who he was.
Penny, Thank you so much for posting this! I really feel like I know much more about who he was now. I knew there was something about you I liked ~ any woman who would love an Irish-at-heart-sailor is a closet Irish sailor in my book, just like me. ;) I'm a land-lubber-but-closet-Irish-sailor ~ never got this fat butt on a sailboat or Ireland soil, but I feel the pull, as I'm sure did Bill and you. How blessed you must feel to have known him and felt his love.
That's really nice, Penny, Looks like you really enjoyed every minute of your short life together. So Sorry it had to end.

I have a feeling that you are as neat of a person as Bill was. What a blessing to have found each other in midlife. It sound like the two of you were really close soulmates.
