Aunt Cheryl

Aunt Cheryl died on July 3, 2010. I got the phone call from Dad that they were taking her off life support and about 10 mins later he called back saying she was gone. Carl and I flew up to Utah for the funeral on Friday morning and were able to be at the funeral for about the last 1/2, we enjoyed a family lunch where the 14 great grandkids were together for the first time. Along with that picture here is her obituary and some pics from the burial in Star Valley.









After the burial we went to Thayne and had lunch. The ones that had to head home that day headed home and most of the rest of us headed to Aunt Marybell's. I had rented a huge 4x4 Ford Expedition so I loaded up Mom, Dad, George, Tammy and Josh and we followed Thalea, Byron, Mason and Sam in their car and went for drive up to Cotton Wood Lake. I hadn't been there in a while, would have loved to have gone out in a boat and fished in the middle of the lake.



After we got back to Aunt Marybell's I helped Joslyn get her ready to goto the hospital where she was going to get a blood transfusion. I headed home Sunday morning after seeing Auntie Marybell in the hospital. Too much hospital that weekend for sure. Visited Casey in the hospital in Ogden after his motorcycle accident. Tim sent pictures in a text and I couldn't figure how to get them from there to here but lets just say that boy is amazing.

Oh yeah on the way out of the valley coming down the summit, I had a little traffic jam of the sorts. I had to wait for a herd of sheep to cross the highway. I didn't think about grabbing my camera until the last ones started to cross and since I was the first car I had to go because there was a traffic jam behind me.
