Doug Brown Memorial

Yesterday Hubs and I went to a memorial service for a good friend’s Dad.  I had never met her dad but I felt an overwhelming urge to do something for my friend.  So, I made some cookies.  (What do yo mean cookies don’t heal all?)  Her dad had been sick for several years and this news was not unexpected however, our family has been through a lot of loss in the last 10 years and no matter how “prepared” you are for the news...you are never really ready.  My girlfriend is holding it together on the outside but I can’t imagine how she must be feeling on the inside....especially since her little bambino is due next week.

The memorial was beautiful; complete with short eulogies by his sister, kids, and wife.  It was very touching and my heart continues to go out to my friend and her family.
