Friday
I am sad today. I attended the funeral of my Uncle. He was very near and dear to my heart. Almost all of my many cousins were there. He touched each of our lives in a different way. He was a Godly man. And was very active in his catholic church. He was a member of many organizations pertaining to the catholic church. He is the one that helped me tell my Mom it was Ok with me for her to go to heaven. She was hanging on when they said she was so close to death and he said because I was her baby so to speak she was waiting for me to say it was ok. So he helped me tell her and she died the next night surrounded by all of us. Her siblings were there that could be. That was January 22, 2007. He officiated you may say at my sisters funeral in October of the same year. He was there for many of us cousins and I have to say there were many. There were 13 kids in my Moms family and each one had at least 1-3 kids and well alot of them were there. And we cling together when there is a death in our family. So anyways I say RIP Uncle Jack. And I am sad. But I am happy for him to be with so many people that have gone home to be angels and now he is one.

Hi Jessie, I am sorry about your uncle's passing. It sounds like you have a large family. I hope you found comfort in being able to be with family members at this time. And it's nice to have someone else in class that remembers the 60's. And other things that happened as I grew up. :) Nice to have you in the same composition class.
