WOW – a year. It’s hard to believe that it’s been a year since Dad passed away. I don’t really know what to call this weekend. Is it an observation or a commemoration or a remembrance?
Whatever it’s called, we did the best we could. We met for breakfast at a diner, then drove up to surprise Nana (Dad’s mom) with a visit and errands. One sister gave Nana step by step directions on how to use facebook, and now the 91 year old is hooked! It’ll be good to have her more connected.
Later that night we pulled out the slide projector and Mom started telling stories that I’d never heard before! The pics proved that my dad loved a snazzy outfit: flashy shirt or patterned pants when he didn’t have to wear his uniform.
