I was very sorry to read that your wife had died.  I wish you well, chum.

I have always admired Nathan's faithfulness in visiting the graves of his 
parents.  This year, after losing my wife at the end of February, it was a race 
against time and the weather to get a marker and flowers in place by Mother's 
Day.  Today, with three days to spare, I finished the task.

There is quite a difference in the imposing markers and statuary that Nathan 
captures on his visits, and the simple, easy maintenance designs of a modern, 
rural cemetery.  But, it is close at hand, and contains a lot of friends and 
acquaintances that I recall as I walk about. And it is perpetually maintained.  
Donna has joined two other family members whom she loved very much.  And  all 
the kids have to do when I'm gone is to add a date plate.
