Graveside

The graveside service for Dad was last Tuesday morning at 8:30. The local American Legion did military honors, a very moving and meaningful tribute. Dave read scripture. Mark recited part of St. Patrick's Breastplate. Nate (and his cousins) manned up, fought back tears, wore suits, carried their grandpa to his final resting place, and stood up for him. It was true and surreal, binding and shattering, comforting and heart-breaking.
