Last Words

Posted on March 14, 2016 by russtowne

I recall reading something about Steve Jobs last words being, “Wow! Wow!” I’d love my last word to be “WAHOO!” and to die with a huge smile and look of awe-filled wonder on my face.

With Love,

Russ

THAT would be amazing! I had a friend who’s mom’s last words with her last breath was “Hello Jesus!” Makes me smile every time I think of it.
