My Uncle Billy - Celebrating Life


During times of bereavement, you may wonder why the feeling of sadness overwhelms so many of us. Memories can cause grief while creating a sense of melancholy. Such an experience happened to me while attending my Uncle Billy Memorial Service. For instance, while reminiscing an interaction with Uncle Billy when I realized his son's real name was Robert Jr. Basically, I had grown up with his son as childhood cousin, and I never realized that he was a junior until his demise. After I learned this new revelation, I was eager to ask Uncle Billy how Robert became a junior. When I inquired, Uncle Billy quickly uttered, "I should know his name since I named him.  I was there when he was borne and I told them to name him after me." Then I realized Uncle Billy real name was Robert too.  In other words, names are truly meaningful because they prove the richness of your character. Like my Uncle Billy whose reputation far exceed his personality within the community of East Chicago since the  meaning of  "Robert" is fame. Truly, my Uncle Billy's fame will forever be cherish by his family. 

So check out the definition of your name and notice how it matches your true character.
