funeral

Thank you very much, everyone, for praying for us. We had an absolutely beautiful day for Mother's funeral. The sun was shining, the temperature was in the 60's and there was no wind! Can you believe that for Jan.?(About 5:45 45mph winds hit) When Mother said she wanted a graveside service, I thought "We'll see what time of year it is and what the weather is like." All of the grandchildren and eight of the nine great grandchildren were able to be there. Jeanne and I are very glad that we went the week-end before to see her even though she could not talk to us and could not see us. We are sure she could hear us and knew we were there. She is now in a much better place. We will miss her. It seems strange to think that we are now the oldest generation in our family. A new phase of life has started. Ann
