Joe's hands as he held the latest generation of our family, 2015 |
I haven't written anything into my blog since December 5, just been busy with all the things that go along with a loss.
This Saturday, January
14th, we're gathering at the golf course Joe so loved to give him
the send-off he requested, a party not a funeral. Like all the parties we hosted
over the years, there will be food and drink and music...and cake. I know there will be many stories from family and friends. (In Joe’s 78 years he gave
us a lot to talk about.) And before the
party ends, we'll toast the "Old Sage" or, "Joe Cool" as he
would have preferred to be called.
I'll have a lot to write about.
Somehow, I think
"Al" may be tampering with the weather because the forecast is grizzly
with more snow on the way. Al was like that you know.
