Jeff’s mom, Marcelene, died a week ago today after a long illness. Of course even when it is not unexpected it is still just so hard for the family and all of their loved ones. Visitation was Thursday afternoon and evening at the funeral home there in Charlestown, and they just did a beautiful job of helping the family celebrate her life. When the family met with the funeral home they asked a lot of questions about her, and incorporated all of her favorite things in the videos that were playing there around the room – including her favorite TV shows. She’d never been on The Price is Right, but she would have gotten such a kick out of this.
There were some beautiful flowers and memorials there, including these from my siblings, which were absolutely beautiful, and meant so much to me. Andy & Amy drove up for the service, too.
