Remembering my Mom

We had a beautiful Memorial service for Mom today.   Sally,  Gabe, Lori, Nancy, Joe, Sue, Ron, Shawn, Walt, Matt, Aunt Beverly, Jerry, Joyce, Marsha, Harry,  Patty, Gary Haller and me!   It was a very nice service, Gary read scripture, We sang "Old Rugged Cross" and "In the Garden", Sally read a great tribute to Mom, Sue and Nancy added some great words.  

Sue presented Aunt Beverly with a nice present - a large charcoal drawing of my Dad.  A perfect way for her to remember her brother.  Sue also brought photo albums for all the families.  They were assembled from pictures that my mom had collected and filed by family.  There was a few misplaced baby pictures - but it made it all fun!

Afterward, Sally broke out a bit of a surprise.  She had the posting we put in a "time capsule" that was created when we were together for Christmas in 1999.  It was fun to see the prediction we made.  I don't remember filling them out, but it sure was fun.  In my post, I asked if Walt was eating pizza 7 days a week!  Ha!

I am blessed to be part of such wonderful cats!!
