This blog...

I am feeling very small and weak because I only made it at work until 1 today. Cripes dad dragged himself to work for years and I can't even make it through a day. I came home and paged through the 29 months of blog postings. I have been printing them out and putting them in a binder. I cannot track any more of Dad's progress from where I am, so I don't see much point in maintaining it. I mentioned to a couple of people that I would stop this blog and I think I am not the only one who is reluctant to cut it cold turkey. It was suggested that maybe I should write how I am coping or to share my memories of him, but I did not create this for that reason. I will keep it up for a couple more weeks, maybe until Christmas. I will post some pictures or something, I don't know. I ask, beg, for anyone who has a fond, funny or other memory of Dennis or even just a story to PLEASE post it in the comments. Or you can use the email link and just email it to me directly. I would love to have memories of him to put with this blog so when my children look at it at least some of it will be good. I can only keep the things alive that I have. It would mean a lot to be able to show them what he meant to other people and how people will remember him.

Please continue to keep him alive in your memories. If anyone needs anything please let me know. I also would like to know how I would get a package to the "guys" in the paint cell at Haworth - as in an address ups will deliver to that will get to them in a timely manner.

Thank you all for your prayers and support through all of this.

The best birthday card I received this year was an e-mail that read Happy Birthday to you
Happy Birthday to you
Happy Birthday dear Cissy
Happy Birthday to you.

Then there was the bright comment in response to Mike's e-mail about what Dr. Frank Burroughs was doing on Oct 8, 1949 (my birthday). Dennis said that I got what I deserved that day!!!!

Short, to the point and right on target!!!

He played free cell and had an adverage better than mine. I tried after he died to live up to his adverage, but alas-I just can't do it.

Miss ya bro. Love, Sis
