We Laughed So Hard We Cried

My father lived by a very strict code of what he believed to be right and wrong. He expected that all should see it just the way he did and behave in that manner and he was very outspoken about it. My sister feels the same way, but the standards are for her only. She accepts people as they are and hopes for the best. My oldest brother is a salesman and he is good at it. All he cares about is money and how good he believes he looks, My other brother is the most generous person on the planet. If you need it he will give it to you. (Especially if you are a stranger. He has already given his friends what they wanted or needed.) He has very long dark brown hair, a gray beard that goes below his belt and people seem to be scared of him. - Now the salesman brother insists that we take an entire family picture because all of us will probably be together at the funeral and it won't happen again. He put my sister in charge of getting us matching shirts. I am not sure he is going to be pleased with her choice, but I am thrilled, are you ready? We will all be wearing shirts (each got to choose their own color and only my sister and I know that they will say - there will be over 100 people children, grandchildren, etc with shirts that say "Learning is important. For example, You should learn when to shut up." We will be dressed properly for the funeral and my Mom, if she were here would love the shirts. I can't wait to see the photographer when he sees it! The best news my sister made the final decision.
