Heard Outside A Nursing Home

A six year-old boy swinging off his mother’s arm leaving Plymouth Life Care Facility on Saturday afternoon, in the cheeriest of tones:
“This would be a good place to get dead at.”
Even though someone I love very much did “get dead” at this very place the next day, I still smile at that little boy’s blithe observation, and I think my dear parishioner would have found it hilarious, too.
