Thursday Night

Wow, what a crowd at the visitation. It just shows what an amazing person Dad was. Here is what Pool Boy said on the way home, which sums it up perfectly:

"I think people stuck around a long time tonight because your Dad always made sure all of his friends and relatives knew each other. He truly liked everyone and always made people feel welcome. So when people came tonight, they all felt like hanging out with each other."

Thanks to everyone who attended the visitation tonight. Even through the horror of the past week, we felt truly blessed tonight. Surrounded by so many family and friends, getting hundreds of hugs, having wonderful conversations with so many people we love - awesome. Thank you for that.
