Yesterday, a clear spring day, we said our final goodbyes to our mom. My brother and I both spoke; it was a short service, conducted at the grave site.Since our mother was the last surviving family member of her generation I was happy for those who attended. Mom had outlived just about everybody. As my cousin Carolyn put it, "She was the last leaf on the tree."
Mom is under the beautiful mountains, including Mt. Olympus, overlooking Salt Lake Valley.
It was a good day to say goodbye.

What a beautiful burial spot, reserved of course for life's most beautiful people.
Once again Pappy you have my deepest sympathies.
