We went to my cousin, Tim Mecum’s memorial service last night. It was amazing. There were 100-150 people in attendance and we got to see a lot of people we had not seen for years. It was a fitting good-bye to a very sweet spirited man who played a significant role in our family when our kids were small. I hope I am remembered as fondly as Tim when my time comes.

We had some time before the service so we drove buy the home in North Albany where we lived for five years and that we remodeled more heavily than any home we have lived in. We were kind of expecting to see something small and run down, but were surprised. We STILL love the house and all the work we did. It was nice to remember some of the goodness we experienced there.
