This is just a little side note on my life. Since the week of Jan 1, 2008 I have only had 2 weeks pass by that I have not had a funeral to either attend or acknowledge. This week is proving to make up for those 2. I already told you that my friend and neighbor, Kyle Carlisle died Friday.
When the kids came home from church yesterday, they told me that Brother Ray Young passed away on Saturday night. When you open today's paper to the obit page, these two great men from my ward are side by side. That touched my heart in a surprising way this morning. Their funerals will also be just one day apart.
(the compassonate service leader just called me to bring food for Brother Young's funeral and she is feeling overwhelmed by the number of funerals)

Yikes! K. Make them all stop!! Sorry for the yuckiness all around...
I'm sorry, Sandra. What a rough week.
I remember at one point in my life that I started feeling that I was going to attend more funerals than weddings for the rest of my life. That time did pass. I feel for you, and know what you're going thru. Loretta
