funeral

Step By Step from From the Strawberry Patch...

Spring is arriving, step by step... I'm ready! I wish I could say it was a steady and gradual shift into spring, but that's not the case. One day we'll have beautiful almost-summerlike days and the next we're plunged back into a day that's cold and blustery, winter still has a grip. I've dug out my wintered-over geraniums and potted them up to enjoy the warmer, sunnmy days

One Quick Trip from From the Strawberry Patch...

We've only just returned from a quick trip to Massachusetts; this time, sadly, for a family funeral. Our dear friend, and brother-in-law, Dick, passed away on Friday, September 8th. He'd been sick for the last few months, we kept up constant communication with Mr. G's sister, Barbara, and knew of his rapidly deteriorating condition but still were not prepared for that phone call informing us that

My daddy passed away late in January.

He'd been in hospice care since December of 2021, so it wasn't a complete surprise, but I still wasn't ready for him to be gone. I'm glad he's no longer suffering.

He was witty and clear-minded right to the very end, making us laugh with his quick sense of humor. Such a ...
