To my beloved family:

I was a berry farmer, named Berry.  It was a great life.  Nearly perfect.  All thanks to you guys.  I managed to live to 60 years, despite being a total noob with only one or two short, tragic lives under my belt before this one.

Mom:  Your name was Silje.  I just thought of you as mom.  It was only my second or third time in the game since the tutorial.  I was worried I wouldn't be of much help.  I said I knew how to farm berries because I'd seen YouTubers farm carrots.  I was too much of a noob to know berry bushes were different.  But you taught me when you realized.  You were patient with me.  And you gave me a purpose.  To farm berries.  Not very noble, but I loved it.  And I did it till I died of old age, just like you wanted.  You were the best mother I could ever ask for.  I'm sorry I never had any daughters to pass the name Berry onto.  I hope one of my sisters did.

My sisters:  Ash, Larson, and Omelia.  I'll never forget how much you helped me. You helped me farm, fed my children, and kept our little civilization alive.  I was talking to one of you, reminiscing about how great a life it had been when I died.  I never got to send my last thank you.  So, thank you.  Thank you for being the best family I ever had in this game.  And thank you for carrying on the family with your daughters.  I hope one of you was able to pass on the name Berry and give them my job.  I remember little Cooper (or something like that)  was farming about the time I died.  I hope she kept the farm alive.  And I hope you guys survived for me.  And to the sister who lost her daughter and grandchild, I'm so sorry.  I tried shoving berries into the kid's mouth, but they died anyway.  If I hadn't been to old I would've fed them normally.  You guys were the best sisters I could have.

To my sons:  Sorry if I wasn't the best mother.  Again, I was a noob.  Your names were John, Mark, Tom, Mike, Nate.  I know one of you found a horse, and another was making plates.  I hope you kept our civilization alive and took care of your cousins.  One of you brought my sister's grandchild to me after their mother died.  I tried to keep them alive, but they also died.  I know I promised to keep them alive.  I'm sorry I failed you. And thank you to the son who dealt with my refusal to let some berry bushes die.  You were right, I'm sorry I kept getting in your way.  I think you ended up destroying most of the extra berry bushes once I gave up on them.  All in all, you were great kids. 

And to my one daughter who ran off after birth:  Why?  You could've been the next Berry.

To all of you:  Thank you for helping me live the best life I could have hoped for.  It was one of the best times I've had playing video games.  I hope we'll meet again, in another life.
