What's a wake?

Answer: A time to celebrate the life of a loved one and the love still living.

Here's the love inspired by Eva as we celebrated her life together.




We told stories, looked at old photos, remembered funny incidents...



We took pictures of the kids... (all of us cousins who grew up together.) This one is me and my cousin, Mike.



And this is me and Nicole.



(How did I miss photo opps with Mitch and Mark?)


And of the kids kids:-)


So what's a wake? A time to remember and reconnect. A time to laugh, talk, cry, and grieve. Grief isn't all about tears. It's also about honoring the love that is still living.

Hey, are there any pics of your husband in there at all? Nice looking family, btw.

Yep:-) He's in the back in the middle, 4th from the right. Salt and pepper hair with glasses. One of the taller guys. Now the question is...can you guess which ones are my kids. Only 4 could make it all the way to Denver between work and college. Who are they? LOL
