I don’t know what else to do but saddle up and ride this trail wherever it leads. It’s one day at a time for me, but that isn’t a bad thing, is it?
One of the things I’ve noticed about this experience, losing a parent, is that there is something very sacred about the process.
The kind words of friends and family mean more than anyone who hasn’t been through this could ever know. I feel enfolded by love and consolation, and I am grateful.
Family is already arriving. The ceremony will be held on Sunday–Father’s Day.

Father’s Day. Now, that seems fitting to me.
