This morning we attended the funeral services for my grandmother (Mom’s mom). This is the first time I’ve done this for blood-related family – the only other funeral I’ve been to was for my wife’s grandfather. I’ve been fortunate to spend my entire life with a healthy set of relatives, but that’s one of the things that has made the past several days difficult.

I’d like to write more on the recent events (I’ve certainly journaled a significant amount privately), but emotions and thoughts are trickling in with the recent finality of it all, and I’m going to take some time for that to sink in.

Thank you to those keeping us in your thoughts. Thank you to work making this trip easy to take. Thank you to family and friends for your support.
