A Touch of Reality III

There was a fair bit of territory to cover as we prepared for Ma's funeral.

First to Chocolate Bay to meet with the undertaker to arrange the service, select the casket, arrange for the Obituary, then it was to Railhead to meet with Pastor Faucet, Ma's minister to arrange for the viewing and funeral, and finally, back to Runamuk to take care of the critters, and a rest.

Friday we packed our good clothes, Fang, and off we were to Railhead. We arrived, had lunch with the rest of the family, and then went to Stonington Baptist for the viewings. There was an evening viewing from 2 to 4 PM, and a second from 7 to 9 PM.

I spent the rest of the evening, and part of the next morning reading over the scripture lesson I was to read during the service.

The service went well except for the way I brayed through John 14. That could have been much better, but everyone was generous enough to say that I did well.

After a quick visit with relatives next door to Ma's place, it was home for the rest of the weekend.

Later, Mushers!
