Yesterday was a rough one for everyone that was close to, or was in some way impacted by, our beloved Billy Ruane. The never-ending line to get into his wake was both wonderful and totally unsurprising, the impromptu New Orleans-style jazz band that set up on the corner outside was absolutely perfect, and the sound of Chris Brokaw's gorgeous guitar playing inside the funeral home made it so much easier to bear.  Postcard design by the Middle East Restaurant. Send your favorite Billy memories to meinfo at themideastclub dot com for their Billy Ruane Memorial The gathering that brought the post-wake crowd to fill Middle East Upstairs and Zuzu was simultaneously celebratory, comforting, and chaotic (kinda like Billy himself). Details on more organized events are trickling out... after all, Billy's birthday is comin' right up. This was sitting on the mantel of the Donovan-Aufiero Funeral Home during Billy's wake, written by Cambridge City Councilor Kenneth E. Reeves...
Right on, Councilor Reeves.  |
