Adam, probably so. I could easily state that I admired his knowledge of autographs and his mission to get auction houses and TPA's to clean up their acts. Being dead and no longer a member of this forum, I would not feel a need to try to convince him to share his knowledge more, or to talk him into conveying his anti-TPA message in a constructive way, thus I could leave that stuff out. I could probably write a eulogy that his family would approve of.
As an aside, my favorite eulogy:
"He was a slob. Did you ever see him eat? Starving children could fill their bellies on the food that ended up in his beard and on his clothes. Dogs would gather to watch him eat. I’ve never understood gluttony, but I hate it. I hated that about you. He enjoyed disgusting people, being disgusting, the thrill of offending people and making them uncomfortable. It was despicable. You will not be missed."
