A Heart in Question
DAVID HART died today, March 30th, of a massive coronary. He was 51. A banker. A rich banker. But it’s just as well. He was a horrible bastard. The world is a better place because of his absence. This is not just my opinion, but the opinion of those he left in his wake of bitterness and unconcern. On the oft chance that there are those who do care, the funeral will be held Friday afternoon at the Holloman Groutman Funeral Home in Manchester, Connecticut. Condolences should be sent to the family, where they will be properly burned.
He is survived by his wife Michelle, 48, and his two children: Mena, 26, and David Jr., 23. While the family was unwilling to make any official comment on David’s passing, a spokesperson for the funeral home said, “It is very clear to everyone in this community just what a prick David was. I’m sure Michelle wouldn’t mind me saying so. I mean, the only reason they even came to us with the body is that there are laws that must be upheld. Otherwise, I don’t even think they would bother. Let him rot.”
David was very active in the community, and a loyal member of the Havenwood Episcopal Church, but he wasn’t fooling anyone. He said he wanted to show his children the love of God and people, but they lived in a constant state of fear. Before he escaped from home, David Jr. was taken to the hospital many times to be treated for skateboarding “accidents”. Mena has yet to escape. Her mother suffers from Bi-Polar Disorder and has needed aid that she never would have received otherwise. David’s absence in death, it seems, is eclipsed only by his absence in life.
Mr. Hart had no prior medical conditions and was in peak physical health when he died. He was found in the bed of a whore, Rachel Mare. Evidently, he had been seeing her for quite a while. Her and several of her friends. After a night of, what Rachel said, was pretty routine sex, David just…stopped living. Rachel was kind enough to go on the record and say, “It was almost like God finally realized what a shit he was and just struck him down. I know this will seriously cut into my budget, but you know what…good riddance. He was a real jerk.”
While the Hart family is not willing to speak publicly, they do want people to know that they are planning to go on with their lives. They have decided not to decry David in his death, feeling like everyone else will demonize him on their own. He lived a life worthy of that, at least.
In closing, I want to be careful not to judge David any further. His accountability in death is to a higher presence. God have mercy on his soul. I would like to point out, however, the irony of his family name. For though he seemed to live his life without a heart, it is that same heart that took his life away
