Max passed away |
Max passed away Thursday morning at 9:47. He took a peaceful breath and was gone. He suffered though before the very end. It was hard. Today was the funeral and I made it through it OK. My mother was a trooper. I was really concerned with how she would do at the grave side services but she was strong. He was buried with full military honors. The 21 gun salute and taps was the hardest part of the ceremony for me. He was a true hero. He has a bronze star and a purple heart. He saved mens lives in the war and saved my mother's life when he married her. He was a good husband to her and he took in us 5 kids in doing so. He will be greatly missed. Thank you all for your prayers. Now we just need to get Gary well. Prayers are needed that Monday we find out that the growth inside Gary is not cancerous.
Later. God bless. Teressa. |

I'm so sorry Teri. He is in a better place now and will suffer no more pain. Your mother is a strong person but be prepared to support her now that she has time to herself to think. Does she have anyone in the house with her? I seem to remember you said your sister stays up there but maybe not. Good luck with Gary's appointment, I am thinking of you, and will say a prayer or two that everything works out ok...((((((Teri)))))))))

I'm so sorry to hear of your loss Teressa! You and your family are in my thoughts. And I'm very sorry to hear about Gary as well. Hopefully the news on that end will be positive! Boy, 2006 hasn't been a very good year for either of us, huh? Take care of yourself! Love you, Kevin
