Sunday September 5, 2010

Best Part of the Day-
Coming together with the cousins, aunts, uncles (and courageous in-laws as it really is a bit to take in--the Cahills...) There were laughs and cries and serious comfort in numbers. I love you, family!
I felt honored to be able to speak at the ceremony...I loved hearing the funny stories of all of the cousins and family/friends.
Also--la-hooved how the younger generation set (undet 10) played in the basement for hours whilst the adults (my peeps) guzzled wine upstairs during the wake. My kids thought it was the best party eva and they stayed up to 11:30pm. Uncle Joey would have approved!

Worst Part of the Day-
Joey's Celebration of Life was today. A celebration it was. Perhaps the most enjoyable funeral of a young person that I have ever been a witness to. But oh my---the pain and heartache of loss is not an easy or quick one to skip over. Soooo many people touched by his life and feel his loss.
