A week of funerals - TUESDAY AND FRIDAY

We later learned that our renter died of natural causes. Baby Maria did not.

Tuesday was the services for the baby, something that I pray I never have to go to again. The church was full of police officers from both agencies, family and 2 parents that just lost their baby. There is really not a way to describe to absolute sadness and pain you feel for the parents as you cannot even imagine what they are going through. What do you say? It just makes no sense. Pink balloons were released at the cemetery as we all said good bye to a life that only arrived 17 days prior.

Friday was the service for Mr. P. Of course, I felt sadness for the family and the 3 children he left behind, but at least with Mr. P there could also be some peace knowing that he lived a full life and was now able to rest.
