Taking the remainder of the day off was the perfect plan. This Memorial Day afternoon, I enjoyed a casual walk with a daughter and granddaughter to the Ogden City Cemetery. We found our Rich ancestors’ monuments and markers, and a famous pioneer’s grave. With perfect weather, loving young people, sweet recollections, and Dark Chocolate Oreos, I felt at peace.
We talked about my parents, grandparents, aunts, and uncles. I am not a great storyteller, but it felt good to share a few memories I treasure. The peaceful walk with loved ones surrounded by beautiful flowers, helped me feel close to my sweetheart Kay. Better than I do now, she knows many who have passed, and likely shares stories about Hinckley and Cannon adventures. Our Kay has a gift for making people smile. I know — she helps me smile every day.
