portions aplenty

I saw many colors and combinations of fruit and Jello on Friday. It was a beautiful yet puzzling display of love and respect at a funeral luncheon for a lovely woman who recently passed away. Does the variety of different colors and vast amounts of food honoring the deceased reflect the feeling of the community?

I say yes.

Jessie was clever woman who, besides being an educator, was mechanically inclined and artistically gifted as well. Always meticulously groomed and well dressed, she was the author and executor of "good things" before Martha made her first cupcake.


My next thought, or question rather, is wondering if it is okay to have a good time at a funeral. I want to say yes! The conversations and connections with people gathered are important for remembering good times. It keeps the memories clear and mindful of details you may have forgotten. I'm glad to have reconnected with old friends and exchanged info for staying in touch on the Internet.

Connections; once tied with a lovely bow, now a simple keystroke, point and click.
