Aunt Sarah’s Visitation

Monday Boo picked me up at lunchtime, and we hit the road to Georgia.  We made great time and had time to kill eating pie at Chili’s and then shopping at The Vitamin Shoppe before we met Greg and Tabitha at his work to head to visitation for Aunt Sarah in Jackson.  It was very nice.  They had a great slide show playing the entire time, with Alan Jackson’s CD of hymns playing in the background, and we must’ve watched it all the way through half a dozen times – at least.  We were all surprised by how much she & Momma looked alike when they were young – I’d just never noticed it before.  We ended up staying almost the entire two hours, even though no other cousins showed up other than Peggy and Patty, of course.  There were some beautiful flowers, including these from Beth and Jackie – possibly the prettiest funeral flowers I’d ever seen.  I think there must’ve been four dozen red roses in this arrangement.  We left there and then stopped for what I’m pretty sure was the best Mexican food I ever ate for supper.  So, as Sherri reminded us, it was a good time and a bad time.IMG_20150601_190210
