I don’t recall the very last words when my old man died. But only an hour before he reminded us that “I’ve always said - the best day of my life will be the day I die, and wear my grown of glory.” (Said in a strong, clear voice).

My trembling and weak voice replied “Well, it’s sure going to be a drag for the rest of us.”

The one thing my dad was looking forward to was having all of his life’s questions answered. Perhaps that is what Jobs was beginning to realize. Or perhaps like me, if I were to die right now, I would be going “Oh wow, Oh wow... I can’t believe this is happening to me. I thought I was going to live for SOOOO much longer.”

My old mentor’s last words were “Beer, I see beer”. Seriously!
