Life Remembered

This past weekend, a dear friend of our family had passed away after a two year battle with a rare form of cancer. He fought until the very end with a smile on his face. He never wanted anyone to feel bad for him or show pity towards him. My love goes out to his wife and two daughters. They were so strong throughout this journey.

We don't want to remember him in his last stages but we do want to remember his life and his legacy. He was great man full of heart and laughter. We all thought for sure with his great attitude and yearn to fight that he would and could overcome the disease. In the end it was too much on his body and over took the last of him and his strength.

Never, ever take one day of your life for granted. Things like this make us hold the ones we love a little longer, a little tighter.
