It gave me time to reflect on my Uncle Bruce's life. If I were to describe him in a few words, I would say; a compassionate, loving family man, funny, strong values, and a man I looked up to. I always felt that I was his favorite niece. (of course I wasn't, he loved all 18 of his nieces and nephews)
That was just the type of person he was. He made you feel special. He truly was interested you, and cared about us all. I'm going to sure miss his laugh.
These four men have all influenced my life. I'm a better person for having them in my life. I am so blessed to be a part of a wonderful family. May we all be together again on the other side.
We all had a good visit with each other. We laughed, we cried, we LOVED one another. We missed those who were unable to make it, but you can be assured we talked about you. hee-hee.
Here's Russell and Aunt Joanie and Patti in the background. Joey here, is snagging some California oranges and lemons to stash in his suitcase to take back to Chicago with him.
It was a beautiful Day.
