Rest peacefully

 We gathered today surrounded by many friends, old and new, to say good bye to an old friend, taken so young.  Kirk, the gentleman on the far left in this picture taken at our wedding.  
So many emotions wash over us when someone we know passes away, but at our age I guess we still feel a little "invincible" and take many days for granted, we think we are too young and death is for the elderly.  This was a very hard day for many, an emotional roller coaster that seemed to last for days. 
Hold your loved ones close, tell them you love them, reach out and help someone and if they refuse, reach harder. 

May you rest in peace Kirk, gone but never forgotten.
