Subject: Re: 10 JAN 22 by TommyT-Bone on 2022/1/10 15:05:17 Good morning. The graveside service was held yesterday. It started late thanks to some family drama that should never happen but always does. One of Sue's brothers is ALWAYS late. He was late for his sisters funeral, his mothers funeral and no doubt will be late for his own funeral. The service was about to start then Sue walks off to talk to a friend, then the father walks off to talk to someone and I have ro reign them in to get the service started.There were people there with active Covid, all told to, stay way back. No one with Covid was allowed at the house afterward. (Both of Sues brothers, cousins and more). We bought plenty of food not knowing how many people would show up. Of course because of Covid there were only about a dozen of us. There was enough food for 3- 4 times that. The service was carried on zoom and people had a hard time logging into the feed and many couldn't hear what was being said. Near the end of the service their was a drizzling rain. Other than that everything else went somewhat smoothly. We cleaned up after the gathering. All that's left is to bring our lawn chairs home. We brought 20 up just in case along with two tents. Of course sadness and grief will loom around the family for some time to come, especially for my FIL. I'll do what needs to be done whenever called. Afterall, it's all about family. Mom will be missed. |
