The Funeral
Posted in Family, Personal Updates on Jun 20th, 2008

Oh man, the funeral day was harddddd. I don’t think I’ve ever cried this many hours in a row. I’ve been sobbing a bit today, but I’ll be alright. It was good to see my whole family! We don’t gather often, but when we do, we’re quite a clan lol It’s great support in times like these.
Mom wants me to get a picture of my aunt to put in a frame, but it feels too soon. I think it will take me a while to open our album.
The priest did a really good speech, and that was also of great comfort. They’ve started a really sweet tradition: since cemeteries are no longer right next to churches, they now put little crosses with people’s name on them in the back of the church. So we can go light a candle for her next to her little cross whenever we feel like it. Probably sounds stupid to some of you :-p but I thought that was sweet. Ah, anyway.
More later.
