Memorial Day

We enjoyed a WARM but lovely Memorial Day. We started a new family tradition of grabbing donuts and heading to the cemetery to honor those that have passed on before us.

When we visited Greg's dad's grave we brought along the fantastic book that Aunt Gina made the sons for Christmas after Ray's death. It is a wonderful tribute to him and we were able to show the kids pictures and tell stories. He was a wonderful man, an engaged and incredibly loving Grandpa and we miss him a lot. Greg said, "I never knew how different life would be without him". Thank you Grandpa Ray for loving us and teaching us. May we always remember your legacy of love and hard work.




After the cemetery we saw a movie at the dollar theater together and then had a swim/food fest with the Newell clan at Sharron's home.

It was a great day!!!
