Memories

All we have are memories...for now.

Burke's dad passed away early Friday morning.
He is no longer suffering.
But we miss him.

The last few days have been a mix of emotions. There have been tears of sorrow, and tears of laughter as each of his children, their spouses and some grandchildren have shared stories about him.

Today Annika said that she still felt sad about Grandpa. Burke told her it would probably take a while before she would feel better.
She immediately burst into tears and said that she knew it would take a very long time because, "He has been my grandpa for years!"

We're so very sorry about the passing of Leon...he was greatly loved and admired by our family.
