Funeral for Aunt Donna in Santa Maria

Ah yes we had to take the picture for posterity....take a look kids great huh?

So as you all know our Aunt Donna passed away October 20, 2009 of cancer. The funeral was this last weekend. Kathy and I traveled to California to attend. It was sad but it was great to be with family especially those we don't see very much. It sure didn't seem right not to see Aunt Donna with Uncle Pete you never saw one with out the other. The greatest blessing we have is that we are a "Forever Family" and I know for a surety they will be together again!
