In Memorium

Our family suffered a great loss this week: our beloved brother passed away early this Thursday morning.

Please send thoughts and prayers for his dear wife and two wonderful boys, in particular.

As a fire fighter he saved many, many lives and will be dearly missed, not only by his regular family, but by his extended fire-fighter-family and local community as well.

Though we had some short notice and were able to tell him how much he meant to us and to say goodbye, (he was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer just 3 months ago), at only 48 he is gone far too soon.

We miss you John.

[Note: Posting may continue to be erratic for a little while but I will continue to bring you fairy tale news as I can.

Thank you for your understanding. And tell the people dearest to you that you love them, every chance you get.]

    Gypsy,

    It's times like these I wish we could put death in a sack for at least a little while longer when we lose loved ones too early. Wishes for joy and peace to your family during your season of mourning.
