Dad was diagnosed with anaplastic thyroid cancer on June 4th, 2009. Sadly, he lost the fight on August 28th, 2009. Less than three months and he's gone. Miss you, Daddy!

Saturday, September 12, 2009





Yesterday was the final portion of 'official' events after the passing of Dad. We were accompanied by a smaller, more intimate crowd of family and friends than last week. It was a nice ending, I think. I've included pictures that George Bradford took for us. He even delivered a CD of the pictures last night before the rain started! Thank you for being our photographer!

This isn't where Dad's grave is but it is representative of the section where he is buried. There is a considerable amount of construction going on and we had to enter through the maintenance entrance and then drive around.



This man played "Taps" from behind the crowd.


Dad had full military honors - so a flag covered his casket which was folded with precision and presented to Mom. These guys must do this all the time but they do it with great care and concern.




We continue to be supported by many family and friends. Thank you for continuing to think of us as we begin this transition.

Blessings!
