Jay Gatsby was a wealthy man and well known host, who was shot dead outside his home this weekend. He was a resident of West Egg, New York. Gatsby served in the United States Military in World War I and attended Oxford for a short period of time. He survived by his father which he abandoned, Mr. Gatz, and his only true friend, Mr.Nick Carraway. Gatsby also leaves behind his love Daisy Buchanan, wife to Tom Buchanan also resident of West Egg. While many business partners outlived Jay Gatsby, none of them attended his funeral. “Let us learn how to show our friendship for a man when he is alive and not after he is dead,” said Meyer Wolfsheim. we thank the minister that gave the service, after being constantly delayed for hours. While thousands had attended Gatsby’s parities, in surprise nobody came to his funeral except for his father, Nick, and the Owl-eyed glassesmean who arrived late. While Gatsby’s life was fancy and extravagant, one can only say “the party is over". Condolences may be sent to his large mansion, although, few seem to be mourning the loss of this man. Rather they mourn the loss of extravagant weekends and free alcohol they took from him.
