"Said is Dead" Funeral Service
Today we laid a dear friend to rest in peace. SAID will no longer be a part of our daily lives. He lived an uneventful life, and was surrounded by adequate words. He was often heard to complain that he did not get the respect he deserved.
The funeral was attended by the surviving members of the Boring Verb Family: Got, Did, Run, and Went.
Ms. O'Donnell shares her memories of Said
with a moving eulogy.
The Mourners
It is a sad day...
Some mourners were overwhelmed with sadness that they would no longer be able to use Said in their daily writing.
