| PATRIARCH |
The plan was to celebrate this wonderful milestone with a joyous celebration. His sister's husband of 67 years, who was 92, passed away on Sunday, so we will be saying goodbye to a beloved family member on Thursday and honoring the patriarch of the family on Saturday. The entire extended family will be together from all over the country which is a blessing. We need to celebrate all the seasons of our life and acknowledge every milestone along the way. In the winter of our lives, every day seems more precious. The truth is no one knows how many days there will be, so share kindness, give joy, express love and appreciation and celebrate each other.

What you have written is so true, each day with our loved ones is precious. I'm so very sorry for your loss. May your emptiness be filled with happy memories.
Thank you all for your heartfelt comments. The celebration was special as we said goodbye to one family member and made plans for the 100 birthday celebration in 5 years! Being together as a very large family was a rare occurrence and everyone made the most of it.
