Well it's been one week since she passed. It is hardest on my Dad as he is now very alone. He had thought about getting a dog, but hasn't had one in 52 years, so I'm not sure how that would go. He always had dogs, but on the farm. Maybe one will just come into his life at the right time. He has flowers to tend to and things to tinker on in his shop to keep him busy.
Here is the same picture retouched by a girl on my camera forum. I'm printing it and framing it for him and will mail it Tuesday.
Again thank you all so very much for your kind words. It really does help.
