I have been doing this old lady's field for around 18 years. Then she didn't call me last year to mow her back field. I thought she may have moved into a retirement home, or maybe passed on. I gave her a call today to see if she still lives on the property. She didn't answer, but she called back in a little while. She told me she thought I had died. She read in the paper a person with my first, and last name had died. She told me she thought I was calling from heaven. The guy lived near me, and I would get his calls. He was a contractor. I got my mowing job back. Stan
 
I serviced his generator on his tour bus. Very nice man. Played for us while we worked.


I have worked with a few that might as well have been dead.

I actually had somebody walk up behind me and take me by the shoulder at a tractor show one time after I read his name in the obits. He asked me if I had any old tractors that I wanted to sell,he needed a project. I was so shocked that I almost asked him if his kids sold all of his after he died.

I mentioned it in the coffee shop and somebody else said they saw his name there too,but apparently it was this guy's father. The same thing happened at an auction not long after we buried a local guy. Somebody grabbed me at an auction and asked if I remembered him? I about said "Yes,I sure do,but I thought we buried you a few weeks ago.". He was a guy who hauled milk back in the mid 70s when I did. He sure looked a more like the guy who died than he looked like he did 40 years ago.
