Back from the funeral

We are back home from Parson's. There is so much I want to say about the funeral but we are so exhausted and I want to have a clear head when I do it. I do want to say that because I was not raised there, there were many strange faces and so I mostly knew my siblings and a few people I remembered from childhood. It was comforting to see the familiar faces of Mark's mom and Ike who were there and Mark Bond who was the worship minister at CCC for awhile, came over from Joplin, where he now ministers and my half sister Laurie (we share a mom) took us down and brought us back. More on this after some serious sleep because we have had some very short nights lately. Again, thanks for all the prayer and condolences!!!
