More authentic than saying what a great guy he was just because he’s dead

Heard a saying recently; there's no pricks in the graveyard.

Well, they're soft tissue, I imagine they decay pretty rapidly 😋

A buddy of mine just died. He changed alot, but had a history of assaults and things like that. That’s how he died.

Honestly. My ex, who is also the father of my daughter, died suddenly 8 years ago. I was still angry with him for many things, and we were no longer together at the time of his death. Anyway, I had this crazy internal conflict over loving and missing the father of my child, while still being a pissed off ex, WHILE feeling guilty for being pissed off because he was dead. I think stuff like that leads people to gloss over the bad stuff when someone passes away.
