Yesterday was the memorial service for Grandma at Fairplains Cemetery. It was a beautiful day in Grand Rapids. Pastor Gary conducted the service and Sally contributed by reading a beautiful remembrance of Grandma that she had written. Aunt Beverly was there with son Jerry & his wife Joyce, daughter Marsha & her hubby Harry, and Patty. Afterward, we took a tour of Grandpa's old haunts in Grand Rapids, then had lunch at our place. Sue read a great essay that she wrote in 2005 about going to Mom's house. And then we opened our "time capsules" that we all wrote at Christmas 1999. Lots of fun to read them!
We watched the hockey game. Darn the Wings lost! Then watched the baseball game. Yay! The Tigers won! Had Big Bob's Pizza for a late dinner. It was a full house with all 3 sisters & Joe & Ron sleeping overnight.
Joe cooked breakfast this morning and we watched home movies that Nancy had transferred to DVD. Lots of great memories! Then everyone took off!
