She is living on in style.
Eldina's family gathered to share stories about the woman who will be remembered as a super mom, a wonderfully fun grandmother and a loving wife.
As my friend Judy Kinney says, death brings us home-literally and figuratively.
I'm glad I came home to help say goodbye to Deenie. My sister-in-law's mother, my brother's mother-in-law, she was not super close to me, but there is something primal about needing to say goodbye to someone who was loved very much by people I love very much.
Another friend talks about how funerals, weddings, birthdays are the glue that holds families together. If so, it was a pretty sticky day.
