What a fine tribute this is to your friend’s philosophy. These true life blues bring us sorrow for the family and friends left but such joy for the person who accepted the end with peace.

This is so good:

“he said Now I’ve got to move on there’s no more tomorrow
I’d hate to make this short story long
I’ve been stuck here in this hell since Jesus left Chicago
When the sun comes up I’ll be as good as gone”

We’re glad your friend made the days count instead of counting the days.

No need to parse things out, your performances, the write and the production are all top tier … by any measure.
