Wednesday - January 9

Today was a very sad day hearing the news this morning that Mark's Dad died suddenly at the age of 91.    We are still trying to comprehend this.....although he had several health issues, he was the Patriarch of the clan and perhaps "invincible"?     What a wonderful man and I'm so proud to have called him "Dad" for 43 years - the best father-in-law a girl could ever ask for!

May 26, 1921-January 9, 2013
Rest in Peace, Dad
 
Very grateful tonight that several of Mark's sisters are close by for his Mom....this will be so hard for her - they would've celebrated their 67th wedding anniversary on the 15th.
 
This morning when Mark called his sister Doris (there are 12 living children), she was at the hospital.   Her son and daughter-in-law had just had a baby girl......a new great granddaughter!!!  
 The Circle of Life goes on....
 
Jane and Joe will take us to Key West in the morning for our flight home.
