A hero has fallen

Many of you may know that Billy Mays has passed on to the great infomercial in the sky .What you may not know is that J idolized him ! He would pause the TV so i could come see the next wonderful thing i could not live with out .He loves commercials ,the one about the purse ,the weight loss pills the acne-be-gone,the mini burgers but his first love was oxy clean! I had not told him that Billy(as we are such fans we can be on first name bases)had died .I was hoping that i would not have to ,but he was on my lap one day while i was surfing the net and the head line said Billy Mays dead at 50 .As he read it you could tell he didnt really get it and i just clicked past it really fast .well last week he came into my room and very irritated said that he had just seen a oxy clean commercial and it was not Billy Mays talking! I asked him to come sit with me and explained that he had died and reminded him about him reading the aol head line then the tears started ,he told me that it made him very sad and he was sad for his family . He was up set because he would not see him on his show and he would not see him all the time on the commercials either, you know how it is when you cant see your best friend again .then a light came on above his head and he asked how old i REALLY was (i tell them i am 99) i told him and he asked how close to 50 that was ,i lied and said very very far away.i understand that when he sits down he thinks that out it will bring up all kinds of things too,but i am still in denial about it myself . I hugged him and told him that we needed to say a prayer for the Mays family because even though he was missing Billy alot and was very sad his family missed him more and they were really sad .He hugged me and i asked him if he thought that he would be ok he said yes then got down and went into his room and cried again .
Now this next part will make the other two men in my life sound cruel but i assure you that only one is being mean ...
daddy and CJ have told him a few times that he could be the next Billy Mays and be on TV too this of course brings up all kinds of things and tears for him and we start it all over again.Yes i have very sternly told them to knock it off ,and reminded them how they would feel if say the driver of a favorite monster truck would die or a maker of say a favorite cigarette would die .so I have high hope that this will put and end to all the Drama they create
