The Allreds

Most people have heard that my uncle Doug passed away on December 24, 2008 at age 46. He was a great man that I only began to get to know. I will always be grateful for the time I was able to spend with him towards the end of his life.

Funerals always bring extended families together to remember those that have passed. I wanted to say that I love my family. All of them. I can't believe how blessed I am to have such fun, interesting, and awesome relatives.

I haven't ever liked going to funerals, it has seemed to bring me pressure to act a certain way, but this short session brought me comfort and an opportunity to offer my condolences. Maybe I've just gotten old enough to appreciate it for what it is. I loved all the comments that were made for Doug and I was so glad that I was able to be there.
