Family Time

A few weeks ago my Uncle Wayne passed away. It was pretty hard for everyone. The plus side was having all the family together. Everyone in the Mitchell family was there minus just 6 people. The visitation was 7 hours long, which I guess is a southern thing, but there was a constant line from what I hear. Tiffany made a great slide show and there were also lots of pictures of him on display.

My heart ached mostly for my Aunt Tracy who lost her sister and husband within a few months of each other. Of course my thoughts and prayers were also with their kids Tiffany, Taylor, and Alex. Hopefully it was helpful to have all the family and friends around. The day after the visitation a short funeral was held. Brett, my brother conducted, friends and family shared thoughts, the Father's Prayer was repeated, and then my sis-in-law, Steph sang "O my Father." It was held in their yard and you could feel Uncle Wayne's presence. Afterwards the family spent the rest of the day together visiting. Below are some pics:) Sorry about the smaller ones taken from my phone, I ran out of room on my camera:(
