Sad day

well, this has been a tough week for us...C's grandfather passed away in the early hours of March 1. He was surrounded by his family and slipped quietly and peacefully away - just like he wanted to. As he'd been battling lung cancer for the last 9 months, it wasn't completely unexpected, though I think death always has a way of catching you off guard or taking life too soon. When is it ever too late? You never hear anyone say that.

Well, in honor of Grandpop, the family has been eating eggplant parmagian and drinking his homemade wine...just a small gesture that I think is tributary in it's own way. It's something that he would have enjoyed knowing...

Anyway, more to come after we get through these next few days.
