Today our family was at our best on the day that was our worst. We love each other so much and that isn't more purely reflected than in the love between the kids. Yes, there were tears, as there should be. We have a hole in our family that can never be filled. We promised each other today that we'll always do this as a family. I have no doubt that this promise will never be hard to keep.
I love you Jeanne and Mike. I miss you everyday.
The sisters remembering together (S, C, CA and me).
Sounds like a lovely morning in spite of the sadness.
