Thanks

Thank you very much for the many e mails about
my mother's passing. She is still with me
and will be for the rest of this life and
for the others to come.


She had a beautiful funeral.
Every flower sent looked like something
she would have picked out and there were
so many of her friends there it turned something
sad into something very warm and loving.

We played the next night as I promised
her we would do and she was right there with
me. Then with Wyoming family on board
we headed to a cabin in Townsend to
talk about her and decompress.

Here are some pictures of the show
and the mountain trip. Mom is in all of them
you just can't. see her.

Again thanks to everyone who called, e mailed and
came by. She loved all of your support for her
kid and family.
