In Memory



I just love this photo.  It's my Uncle Jim pulling my Dad into the Wedding chapel.  I think my Dad is just pretending to have jitters.  I think.  

My Uncle Jim passed away a couple weeks ago.  He was so popular and beloved with his family and the whole community.  Mostly because of his humor.  And the fact that he would be friend anyone and everyone.  His memorial was filled to the rafters. His laughter is gone now.  He sure will be missed.

In memory of my Uncle Jim and Dad Sidney on this Memorial Day.

A day to remember those we love who have gone before us, to pave the way, to be there waving to us when we pass over...
