A bittersweet day

[Karen]

Aww, we'll be thinking of you.

I had one of those moments yesterday, had to do some errands out near my old hometown, and the ice cream stand was open for the summer. I stopped to get a strawberry frappe to have on the way back home (Yum - a very sporadic indulgence) and the soft-serve special flavor this week is black raspberry. That was Dad's favorite flavor of ice cream, and this is right around the time he went in the hospital last year, and then he passed away in the fall.

Sorry to be seeing this only today Pom-----better late then never. I know how proud we feel when the kids or grandkids accomplish their goals, good wishes to your granddaughter, I know how much she means to you . She is a very determined young lady and will succeed at whatever she goes for.

I share the sadness you feel for your brother... and for the way things didn't work out... may he RIP. Bittersweet it is...

Dear Ellie, congratulations to your granddaughter, and my best wishes to her in her future endeavors. You done well, Granddaughter and Grammy both!

And my sympathy to you and your family and all who love your dear brother, on this sad anniversary of his passing. May all your precious memories and keepsakes of him help to bring you comfort.

A bittersweet time, indeed.
