Journal entry by freddie van middendorp

Update, Saturday. Mary’s arrangements have been made and she wished her ashes to be spread with her mom’s and our 1st daughter, Piper’s, at Louie Lake here in McCall. We’ll update everyone on that plan for this summer after the snow is gone. Tyler hopes to have an informal celebration of her life in the Willamette Valley for family and friends on the “wet-side” of the Cascades😄. An obituary will be released in the near future, but please understand, this was unexpected, painful, and overwhelming with the unique logistics of our parents living situation and transitioning Steve into housing with some medical assistance. Tyler and I are cleaning out their rental and helping Steve decide what to keep. Please be patient and know that we will cross t’s and dot i’s.

Please say prayers for Steve. He lost his wife, dog, car, home (sounding like a country song😂), and independence all at once. He’s struggling but getting healthier daily. Thank you all for the love and support.

Please keep the pictures coming as you find them. I believe you can add them to the “trubutes” in this journal.
