Uncle Jerry's Funeral

The Roseville Fire Department honored Uncle Jerry with a beautiful American flag - similar to the way the Navy did for Dad last year. The mournful Taps was played by a fireman across the parking lot.

The Roseville Police and Fire Departments escorted the family (and it was a big line of cars - because we have a BIG family) to the cemetery. There was a fire truck with the lights on at the front and the back of the line of cars and the police stopped all traffic while we traveled - so happy that the cemetery was not that far from the church.

Dad's gravestone has finally been placed on his grave. It looks like the family gathering on Memorial Day will begin here starting this May. Can you just imagine how Dad and Uncle Jerry will enjoy seeing everyone gather here?
