the indignities of old age, intimidating infirmities, the indignities of losing SELF that stimulates some to stage the final curtain call while they are yet in control of what’s going on backstage should never surprise those who sense life can be a crap-shoot and though death really is the final indignity the terms are negotiable * for hunter * |

Forgive my ignorance. But who is "hunter"? The hunter that came to my mind is the constellation Orion!  One thought that did come to mind is that youth is often wasted on the young. When we are old enough to appreciate our bodies, we're too old to enjoy them! ~ Of course, I am not in either category! "Angels" love to play ~ and we never grow old!  EA |

His son Juan said he figured Hunter just decided it was time to go, maybe had nothing more to write or give, rather than despondency over ill health. No note though, so all are left wondering. |
