Someone dies.

Let's say it's your mother.

And of all the unhappy things to deal with, you also have to write an obituary for the

local paper.

Here's one that appeared in a couple of small town Pennsylvania newspapers last year.

Carol Fritzi Miller-Robertson departed this world Friday, December 2, 2011, from her

beloved second home in Aheek, Mexico.

Here, I'm going to let her daughter, Amy Robertson, read you the rest.

She'll be remembered as an astute business woman, a rabbit historian, a fascinating

hostess, and a boundless creative.

She loved her family, history, antiques, horses, the arts, and good gossip.

Her regular emails to family were often unintentionally hilarious as her typing was

spotty and her typos and her typos were legendary.

Yeah, easy for you to say, sorry.

Regardless, Carol wrote short stories and was working on screenplay.

She was a difficult mother and a horrendous mother-in-law.

She will still be missed.

Carol is survived by her children, Mark Linan of Venisha, Pennsylvania, Amy Jessica,

aithnolmarmi.

Amy, wait, I'm sorry.

Sure.

That is just one of the best, well, I don't know about best.
