It is a week ago today that Mama left us. We had the burial yesterday at the Ponds cemetery where Daddy is. Just the family was there. Nobody from the funeral home. Marty, Mom's grandson placed her urn in the grave and Ralph lovingly covered her. It was very intimate and very touching. It was a beautiful sunny day and the birds were singing and you could hear the ocean waves up behind the cemetery. Mama will like it there. It is peaceful and she can hear the ocean.
Life goes on. Ralph went fishing up at the Branch today but we have had so much rain the brook was really high so they didn't get anything. Trish, Joe, Ralph and I are going up to the Branch on Wednesday evening to see Jean and Louise and to give Trish the opportunity for one last visit before she leaves for Ontario.
Forecast is for another sunny day tomorrow. Hope so. There have been enough gloomy days here in N.S. to last for a long time.

Hope that you had a good visit with Grandma, Aunt Louise and everyone up at the Branch.
We have been thinking of you over the last few days.
Take care
Hey Mom,
Your suggestion to check out Paul Potts on YouTube was a good one. Adria and I were crying in my office! Such a great story, anything is possible.
Love you bunches
Sandra
