Second Anniversary of Taowee's Memorial Service

Two years ago today we celebrated my grandmother's life at the site of her grave on a frozen, windy day in Illinois. It followed a very moving, positive program at St James Church where a few dozen relatives sang an incredible version of "Shall we gather by the river" and shared memories of Taowee.

This photo is of her by the ocean in Goose Rocks Beach, Maine.

And here she is several years ago with all 6 of her grandchildren.
