520    There's a certain kind of lost a boy feels in this world 
       without a father. Tim felt it. I felt it. And we realized 
       our only way out would be together. In an openhearted 
       memoir of faith on the fringe, Roger Thompson meditates on
       the life and premature death of his best friend and 
       business partner, Tim Garrety, cofounder of Skate Street 
       Ventura. Roger and Tim's twenty-year friendship was forged
       in the surf and on the streets of 1980s California. 
       Together they hazarded countless waves and every rite of 
       passage -- from guitars to girls to God -- and influenced 
       the lives of thousands of skateboarders, musicians, 
       surfers, and otherwise disconnected youth in the process. 
       With unrestrained honesty and a punk-rock soundtrack, My 
       Best Friend's Funeral is a memoir of friendship, doubt, 
       surfing, and the complex relationships between fathers and
       sons. If life has ever left you feeling abandoned -- or if
       you simply prefer a rock show to a sermon -- My Best 
       Friend's Funeral is a memoir you won't want to miss, and a
       confirmation that you are never alone.
