For all of the great times we had this summer, (vacation, weddings, camping, not fishing, etc.) we did have some sad times as well. Both my uncle and grandmother passed away this summer. My uncle lost a very hard fought battle with Parkinson's in early July and my grandma simply passed away from old age in September. Both of them had a huge influence on my life and we will miss them very much.
The good thing, if there is such a thing, is that we had a memorial service for them at my favorite place in the world (no not Disneyland), Strawberry Lake. Friends and family from all over the world came to pay their respects and lay them to rest with my grandfather. It was wonderful to talk to people that I hadn't seen in years and meet people whom I had heard so much about, but hadn't yet had the opportunity to meet.
They will both be missed very much, but the impact that they have had on my life will continue to influence the person that I am.
It's been a really long time since I've posted!
