In Memory and In Honor

Today we honored the life of my uncle
 Ross Sowers.
My Dad's brother

He was invloved with Live Steamers.
(Small Trains.)
The last song for his service was
Perfect song for him.
And just as the song ended
A train in the distance could be
heard blowing its whistle as it came into Lincoln.
A sign that brought smiles and giggles
to loved ones sitting there.
Perfect timing..perfect ending.
Love sent from above.

We came back to Decatur
And the family gathered around
to honor the second one to have passed.
Roses were handed to the loved ones there.
And a thought was mentioned
to honor the oldest brother
who had passed 2 years 2 months before.

And with that thought,
a quick trip was made
to place a rose
upon the others grave.

It was hardly a surprise to me
as we drove into the cemetary 
 to see before us
a red tail hawk
circling against the blue sky.

Perfect timing...perfect ending.
Love sent from above.

(My sign for Dad is the red tail hawk)
