Journal entry by Chris Appleby —
Friends and Family,
We were so moved last week by all the kind words, stories, cards, gifts, food, prayer, organization of Dad's memorial service, and attendance of the same. Thank you all!
Many of you let us know that you would not be able to attend and asked about a recording. Here is a link to the recording of the service if you'd like to watch. https://vimeo.com/event/3768737/bb9cf52bce
(The service really begins at minute 24.)

My family (the 5 of us) went down to the beach for a few days and took my mom with us. It was a great time to decompress, rest, and just have a little fun. By God's grace, we did, and we're thankful. The coming weeks and months will bring emotion, change, and challenge. Please continue to ask the Lord to hold each of us fast as we grieve and move forward in our different ways.
Thank you all,
Chris
