today has been a very trying day for our family..today we must say good-bye to our dearly departed...after a brief and tearful graveside service we return to my uncle's farm for some reminiscing and family sharing.....I don't believe the farm has seen so many people there all at once...nieces nephews great nieces nephews brothers (2 left out of 5 ) remain...all with some special memory to share....hard day but sharing our grief and memories made it a very GOOD day and the rain let up and the sun shone all afternoon....a sign to me all was well....I was deeply thankful for the strength my brother Rick displayed as he capably expressed the feelings of each of us when he handled the graveside service..Thanks Rick......
