My Dear Friends and Family,

I know many of you are wondering about our plans for a memorial service for Bruce. So, this is my plan for the moment. I want to wait until the middle of June (no exact date yet), and have a simple, outside service on our property in Pagosa Springs. This beautiful property was one of Bruce's last dreams. He put all he had into it. However, it is buried in over a foot of snow at the moment, and more falling, I am told. Also, the kids and I are exhausted, raw, and broke. All of the kids made a trip to Durango to see their Dad in the hospital (I am sooo thankful that the Lord arranged and allowed that), and so need to recover from that trip financially before making another one. This will give us time to process our thoughts, memories and emotions, find pictures and mementos, and plan a service that will be pleasing to Jesus and a reflection of who Bruce was. If you are able to come we would love to have you celebrate with us. I will put up an exact date as soon as I can to allow you to plan and make reservations in the area (Pagosa Springs is very full in the Summer).  Thank you again for your support and for allowing me the time and space I need to grieve and rest in the Lord.
