Uncle Rex's Funeral

 I wanted to share this darling plaque that Kurt's family made for my Mother's Day - I love it and them! and you all!!
 Janice and Wayne were at Uncle Rex;s funeral - plus another cousin - Melody - Uncle Dan's daughter - I think Dad is the best looking of all!  It was nice to learn more about Rex and Evelyn's life.
 Uncle Rex served in the Navy - on a ship in the South Pacific - Military Services are awesome!
 The Vets - all pretty aged!!  Did a great job - notice the gun and helmet.
 Saluting while Taps was being played - pretty impressive.
 Shooting the honor salute - loud - made the babies cry!
Playing Taps - the rain held off until all was completed.

 There were lovely flowers - Rex and Evelyn loved flowers and had a beautiful yard - this has a mink made out of mums - they had award winning mink and sold the pelts world wide.
 Our favorite flower arrangement - see the fishing pole in it?  and the back of the mink showing the flowers better.
Top of the fishing pole arrangement - lovely service and yummy luncheon afterward.
