Funerals are never easy.....and this one really hard.
Lots of emotions, she died too soon, she was doing so well, we knew it was coming eventually, but she was doing so much better.
It was so great to be able to see all of the family. We hadn't all been in the same place for about 5 years, so that part of it was fun. Sadly, it was a funeral that brought us together.
Paul, Rachel, Todd, Nate, Jessica, Pam
Papa and Siblings
Trying to get a picture of Grandma's 14 grandkids.....as you can see, it didn't go so well!! But they are all in there!
Waiting.....
My boys were so honored to be casket bearers, it makes me cry even now just thinking about it.
I was a little worried about Brandon being able to carry the casket, but with his uncles helping, he carried the load!!
Todd suggested we get the boys new suits. Both of them have always wanted a suit, but I never saw a need to spend the money. We went to Mr. Mac the day before the funeral and they had the suits altered in 3 hours!!
Shout out to Mr. Mac!!
They all looked so handsome!

BEAUTIFUL group of siblings.
a funeral is a bitter sweet time, isn't it?
Thank you for sharing--and loads of love to you.

I never have passed up my dad. I have the Burt one size fits all hand size. It looks like I better look out for Marissa.
Your boys look handsome in their suits! That is a great honor for them.
I'm so sorry for your loss! It's always hard to lose anyone. It is a bitter sweet moment going to funerals. It looks like a wonderful opportunity for your boys though.
You all looked so lovely for the funeral. What a hard day...
