6 months apart....Who would've thought?

December 14, 2008 approximately 2:30 pm, Mike's best man Shaq lost his mother. December 14 is 6 months to the day we buried Mike's mom. How ironic. Thinking back to June 14, 2008 sitting in a warm North Carolina church, who would've imagined we'd be here 6 months later? 2008 is definitely a year to be remembered as one of the worst for us.

The funeral is set for Thursday at 1:30 pm. Afterwards, family and friends will gather for a "celebration", also known as a repast. I volunteered to cook; still deciding what I will prepare. I just can't believe we're going through this so soon with our brother. We are way beyond the friend stage with Shaq, he's our brother for sure.

We know the days, weeks, months, and years to come will be difficult, but we'll get through them together.
