In lives, we lose people along the way that we love. Today marks the 10th anniversary of the death of our dear friend Larry. He died from injuries sustained in a farming accident. Just an ordinary guy who loved his wife and children. Worked hard and laughed well. Cared about his ladies-his herd of cattle! Each year as we enter the Winter Solstice, we always think of him. Are there people you remember often?
The older we get, the more frequently we learn of the deaths of people we have known for years. Sometimes, they were only acquaintances; sometimes they were quite close to us. Their passing reminds us of how fragile and short life can be. Remembering them honours them.
