Update On Joanne

Hi Mike & Family

I hope the weather is nice in Florida …

When I got home on Saturday my drive way was already cleaned but then I noticed the bathroom needed to be done. So off I go cleaning it– in the same clothes that I wore on Saturday to the funeral. Darren comes in from hockey try outs and asked these “follow up” questions.

Hi mom … how was the funeral?
I said amazing and beautiful.

A lot of people?
I said the church was full.

Was the Bishop there?
Nope, he’s in Rome with the Pope.

Did you have enough tissues?
Yep, I had some left.

WHAT KIND OF MUSIC DID THEY PLAY IN THE BIG BLACK CAR?
(Taken back by the question I asked why you would ask that question.)
Remember when we went to see her that night there was music playing in the room.
Oh yes, I remember. I said ...
I bet they were playing “time of my life” by green day. I like that song he said.

I like the pink ribbon that you have on.
I said that a friend gave it to me, isn’t it lovely.

Is everything going to be ok?
Everything will be ok … Tears mend the heart, laughter brings home I said …

TTFN
Laura

ps – Darren changed his hockey tape on his stick on the weekend from black to pink to honour Joanne.
