I'm so sorry for your loss. Cancer can be a very hard thing to deal with. My brother-in-law has it now.

"we miss our sweet singer"
isn't that enough to make you weep...

Rich and I grew much closer as we got older. We told jokes, watched movies and listened to music together. He was one of the most interesting people I ever met. And he cared about his family and friends. He was a dreamer and a fighter. I am thankful that he married Hollie, because now I have another cousin. But no one could replace Richie, ever. I hold him very near and dear to my heart and will spend my lifetime making sure that he is remembered. He deserves that much. I miss him so much...

He lives so strong in our memory and I know it will not fade. God makes us all so unique that there is no chance of memories being confused with others. I will spend more time in eternity with him to make up for any missed time. We were so blessed by the time He was given to us--I liked the way He always approached me--I hope he felt the same--A loving Uncle

I didn't get to know Richie that well, but when I did it was as family and I felt at home. I know that Scott thinks a lot about his cousin and our thoughts and prayers are with Ron and Kay.
He's being missed,but I'm glad I got to know him as much as I did.

its hard not to see him anymore, knowind that you saw him from a litle baby, to a adult graduating from 8th grade. we hung out together, got are teah cleaned together. it really hit me hard when i got to talk to him, knowing that it spread a little sunshine,or little joy in his life. it just make you want to spend time with family more, because you never know when you are not going to see them again. its the little things that remind you of him. he was a husband, friend, and a great singer. may you rest, and you will awake in heaven soon, we will again catch up on old times, new times, memories.

Ice Can Look Nice

Image
When there is an inversion and the fog rolls into a shivery valley it is both dangerous and breathtaking. Walking on the gravelly path seems stable, but even the small twigs that stick up around the edges grab onto the moisture and create little artistic ice crystals. a male house finch adds a spot of color! After a few days of this wintery chill,  a warm Chinook wind blew in.  It was probably pushed ahead of what the weatherman called an "atmospheric river" which drenched the west siders way beyond seasonal norms. It is forecast that  Christmas will be warm and no white stuff falling.  At least not here. **** May there be moments of peace and hope in your hearts as you celebrate this holiday. Hug each other.  Feed the birds ****

Fun Monday - Childhood Memories

Image
Our Fun Monday Host this week is Molly, Return of the White Robin . She requested that we share a fond memory of childhood and some pictures. There are very few pictures of my childhood. There are, however, many memories. Little snippets of sounds and smells raced through my mind today as I tried to find a trail to follow. I jotted down many that I hoped would provide me with an idea for today's assignment. Then, I realized that these little bits and pieces are part of the jig saw puzzle of me -- of who I am. You don't have to put them together, but I think you'll see the picture. Childhood Memories The chorus of frogs from the pond in the lower pasture that lulled us to sleep on warm summer nights. Catching polliwogs in the creek that disappeared several pastures over into a foliage camouflaged ravine. The distinct sweet smell of new born kittens inside a barrel in the fruit house The hunt for the elusive Tiger Lily in the open fields, and the pungent s...

Fun Monday

Quirky Lisa (Lisa's Chaos) is today's Hostess with the mostess quirks. She used the following instructions to enlighten us about today's topic: A quirk is defined as a peculiarity of action, behavior, or personality; mannerism. We are all unique individuals, having quirks that help make us who we are. I would like to know what your quirks are. Confess to one, confess to ten, you decide. Just come back Monday ready to spill the beans, the rest of the world may look at you like you are from Mars, but you‘re among friends here. We won’t laugh, in fact that eccentricity just may endear you to us more. Well ...I'm being as quirky as Swampwitch today. I'm sorta following the rules, and sorta not. Instead of hearing about my boring quirkiness, you are being treated to an old story about a quirky cat. * * * * Daggett was a cat with very odd behavior. I like to think she channeled my monthly mood swings. But, her excuse may be that her head was slightly injured in a c...
