A Sad Day For Our Family

Yesterday we got word that my uncle (amber's mom's brother) had passed away. He had been living in the Idaho mountains for a long time now where he was known around town but kept to himself. We hadn't seen him for years but Grandpa/ma and my mom talked to him via phone while he was in the hospital with emphysema and dehydration. The conversations went well and now knowing what we know, those conversations were a blessing. Uncle Billy was the eldest of 6. And almost a year ago (feb.08) we lost the second to eldest, Uncle Geary. It has been a hard year, to say the least. As a mom now I can not even imagine the pain that my grandparents are going through...this is where the "foot prints" come in to play!

R.I.P Uncle Billy may your heart and body be filled with as must warmth as possible
