Grace in Small Things

1. Sitting with my sisters outside of a tiny hamlet's tiny church at magic hour.
2. The next day, helping my dad put the finishing touches on a eulogy.
3. My dad reading it in front of a large congregation.
4. Getting to be there for my friends.
5. The beautiful spot where Uncle Paul rests, the grasses bowing with the relief of cool prairie winds.

It was a good day and I'm grateful for the chance to share it with your family and friends. The sun was pretty much set as we started home from the farm. We stopped for a final farewell to Paul and the coyotes were singing their farewell.

Words fail me on how appropriate an end that is.
