11/29/07 - Something Smells At Eber Brother's In Port Chester. Oh No! It's Remy!!!!!!


HEADLINE:



STORY:


So I used to have a fish at my last office (Eber Wine and Liquor).. People thought I was crazy at first but it soon became the attraction of the building... I even named him Remy (Martin Cognac) after one of our major brands that we carried.... This is the sad news I passed on to my ex-coworkers...


It is with deepest regret that we inform you of the passing of Remy, the goldfish. Purchased back in 2002 as a birthday present for $0.99 for his loving guardian, he grew up in Yorktown Heights, NY. He then made the move south county to White Plains and soon after settled into a wonderful foster home at Eber Bros Inc in Port Chester, NY.


Although at first, employees thought his owner was nuts for bringing him in, he was enveloped with love and tender care by many friends and co-workers. Unfortunately, no one was at his side when he went belly up on Sunday, November 25, 2007, but his memory will forever be ingrained into the warehouse-turned-shabby-office at 305 South Regent.


Remy's memory will live on forever in the soul of the next fish that will replace him today at lunch time. May he rest in peace in the big ocean in the sky. Peace be with you all.

ode to my fish...
by ao
i am a fish

i swim in the sea
i have a brain
the size of a pea

i don't do anything
just float all day
waiting for food
to come my way

it's hard to believe
i survived this long
5 years for a fish?
that must be wrong!

at funerals you know
the situation is tense
but i'll be replaced
for 99 cents

my name was remy
i was a goldfish
the folks at eber
i surely shall missh'
