I went to a funeral home for visitation on Tuesday evening, the mother of someone I've recently met. I was so touched meeting the family and getting to know them that I was drawn back to attend the funeral service yesterday.
You would think I would have posted this in 'What Ruined My Day", but the love for this beautiful woman/mother/grandmother/great grandmother and most importantly wife, was unbelievable, and it made my day to meet all of the family and celebrate this wonderful lady's life.
Dan wanted to leave it at just Tuesday night, but I was not having it. I needed him to join me yesterday for the service, if for no other reason than to communicate with people which is often the case. He's glad we attended. Just walking in the room we felt like we were part of the family.
Seeing my new friend give the eulogy was so touching. What a special lady. She was so loved by so many during her long life.
You're a wonderful man, Mike3854, and I'm so sorry for the loss of your mother. Those who met her are blessed.
Bonus WMMD ... the family hosted a post service luncheon at a restaurant I have never been to. It might be my new favorite restaurant.
