I'm sorry, mate. It's tough losing someone close to you like that. I hope you can find time to remember the good memories.

Regarding wearing a kilt to church functions, I wear mine all the time to my local extremely EXTREMELY liberal Presbyterian church and get nothing but positive comments, though I finally corrected one of the guys who insisted on kidding me, for about the ninth time, about crossdressing. It was all in fun and we're friends, but it just got a little bit old, you know?
