Bye Bye

I didn’t work today. Instead we went to the public viewing, mass and luncheon for George. Lisa and I acted as pallbearers along with Barbara & George’s 2 nieces and 2 nephews. There wasn’t much lifting involved. Mainly it was guiding the casket which sat on a rolling table. When we guided the casket from the church to the hearse, I noticed there was a folded orange apron sitting atop the casket. After George retired, he worked a couple days a week at Home Depot. The orange apron was from his co-workers. They all signed it. Maybe it sounds silly but I found that very touching. I know George is in a much better place. He was diagnosed with brain cancer in November. It happened so fast. I keep thinking of Barbara. I hope she will be okay.

    My condolences to Barbara too. I’m so sorry she has to go through this. It doesn’t matter whether it was a sudden death or a lingering illness. I’m sure it is still just as painful.
