A Busy Weekend

Well, there was much traveling with even more conversation with my wife's family, some of whom I had not even met before.

It was a gathering to celebrate the life of a wonderful woman who raised five children who went on to build their own wonderful families, of which I am now a part.

As with the first time I met many of them, I was welcomed in as a long time friend, a family I have become a part of recently, though I get welcomed in as if I had been there for decades.

We celebrated the life of Mary Jane through stories and anecdotes, memories and photos. She was a truly wonderful woman for so many people.

I am very happy I got to know her too.
