After talking to Greg I walk over to my dad and ask him if he minds me sitting next to Becky at the funeral

"Of course not" he says

"Thanks dad!" I say hugging him and then I walk inside the church, I look around to find Becky which doesn't take a long. I walk over to them and sit in between Becky and Greg like I promised.

"Did you know Coach Buzzer?" Becky asks

"I've meet him twice but I don't really remember him" I say "but I do remember all the fun stories my dad told me about him" I say

"That's nice" Becky says, I was about to say something but I was interrupted by the priest which means the funeral is starting now.

"Coach Robert "The Buzzer" Ferdinando was a caretaker by profession. What a wonderful word to describe his devotion to his fellow man, he truly took care. When Robert knew that his time was short he told me there was one specific man he wanted to say a few words to memorize him. So I'd like to ask Lenny Feder to come up now" The priest says, Lenny walks up to where the priest was standing and turns around to look at us

"I'm sorry, I'm not prepared at all. I feel very honored that Coach asked me to do this but I also feel terrible because I haven't seen the Coach in so long and he always wanted me to come to town and see him. I just got caught up in what I've been doing and I regret it. I understand that the St. Mark's team of 1978 was the only championship team that the Coach ever had and that's very impressive I gotta say, judging from the talent we had to offer. I mean believe or not Robbie and Marcus were actually shorter back in 1789" he jokes making me laugh

"Yeah but those guys had a skill that you never mastered, they knew how to pass the ball" My dad's friend, Eric, I think says

"Looks like someone has to learn how to pass the Kentucky Fried Chicken" Lenny jokes
"I'm kidding I'm kidding" he then says

"We're saying goodbye to a big part of our lives, all of us. You affected everybody in this room and I hope me get to live our lives like you, have no regrets when life's final buzzer sounds. So let's all bow our heads in silence" Lenny says. After him a weird guy walks up and start singing a weird song, hen he finishes my dad makes a buzzer noise.

"Grow up will you?" Robbie shouts

"Oh like at him now" Lenny says "don't get so mad there Robbie" he jokes

"Ariana go up there and show him how it's done" my dad says

"Are you sure dad?" I ask turning around to look at him

"Yeah just sing that song you made for your mother's funeral" my dad says

"Raindrops, An angel cried?" I ask

"Yeah that one" he says

"If you say so" I say getting up from my spot next to Becky and walking over to the casket and I start singing "an angel cried"

"When raindrops fell down from the sky
The day you left me, an angel cried
Oh, she cried, an angel cried
She cried" I sing and then everybody claps

"See Robbie, short and beautiful" my dad says while I walk down to my seat. After that everybody walk outside to eat
