Journal entry by Justin Elliott —
Today my family came together to lay my mom to rest beside her grandparents and her mom. And all thanks to the generosity and caring of friends, family, co workers and some people I don't even know. I was able to say some words on my mom's behalf and even play and sing her a couple of songs. Although I am bone tired, I feel the way I think you should feel after a funeral. Satisfied. Even happy. The cemetery is covered in beautiful wildflowers and I got to see all the little kids playing in them. I got to see family I haven't seen in years. I got to hear stories about my mom I'd never heard. And I know every bit of that made my mom happy.
