Thank you !! your words of course brought tears to my eyes. David's service was simple but heartfelt. we had planted mums the weekend before, w/ the other flowers already there, put up a colorful autumn flag, so it looked really nice.
Only a small group was there, but it was nice. I started to read a poem and immediately choked up and could barely go on to read others, and bible verses, but I did. I asked if anyone wanted to say anything, but no one really did; guess that's good. My sister the rabble-rouser read "footprints", and did not give one little whit of trouble that day.
After the services, we went back to my cousins, and had a cookout w/ food we preppred and brought w/ us, so they would not be inconvenienced. It was a long and emotional day. I feel very sad now that David is no longer in my home; I miss seeing his urn. I have to believe so very hard that he is now really at peace w/ my mother in heaven, and they are re-united.
I'm crying now.... I have to go. but I will be back on to continue that horrible day/night story, and keep in touch w/ everyone here. Lots of love and hugs to you all. deebee
