Hope your thanksgiving was a nice one and you had plenty of good food.
As you read this you may wonder why I wrote this article this week with the death of my mother-in-law at hand. She, of all people, would tell you that no matter what happens, life goes on. She was a hard worker all her life and was a fighter and a survivor. Sometimes life dealt her a hard blow, especially in the death of her husband, leaving her with three young teenagers to raise. And again in 1956, when an untimely accident claimed the life of her youngest son, Alfred, Jr. (Shorty) and his wife of one month.
But she knew how to take the hard blows and continue on as we all must learn. She loved and enjoyed life to the fullest. She had a sense of humor and loved to laugh. She was a friend to all and most everyone was her friend. She will be missed but because of her "senile dementia" disease she has not been herself for a long time.
After 90 years, she was ready to go on to a better life and we believe that is where she is. And that is the hope of all of us who are left behind to carry on.
