Blade Runner...ish Toronto

Walking through the intersection of Yonge and Dundas in Toronto puts one in mind of the street scenes in the film Blade Runner. The only things missing are the flying cars and the constant rain. This is a Lumiere video.

Forever

On a sunny afternoon in late September, my brothers and I finally laid our parents to rest. They had no wishes for their remains. It was decided to bury them with my fathers family. Something had to be done and this was it.
When you are young you believe your parents are there forever. As you get older you realize there is only one thing that is forever.

Music: Hood - This is it forever

Closure

David Karnick, my brother-in-law, died from complications due to AIDS in 1994 at the age of twenty eight. During his illness David became involved with ACT, Aids Committee of Toronto, helping ease the pain of others and educating himself in treatments and care for HIV and AIDS patients. Believing everyone deserves the best care David co-wrote the information brouchure, You and your Doctor.
David's personal and business life offered many opportunities for travel Whatever the reason, travel with David was always an experience to remember. His desire for travel lead to my European vacation this past spring.
David wished to be cremated on his death with half of his ashes to be buried next to his mother and the rest to be scattered in open water off Copenhagen in the Kattegat, in hopes they will drift north to the Skagerrak into ocean currents and travel the world forever. After many years of planning, canceling, nephews growing up and rescheduling, David's family and best friend Bill with partner William and friend Ed brought David's final wish to fruition.
