We recently went to Arkansas to visit Robert's family. His mother had a stroke and we were checking in on that situation. We went over Memorial weekend--I have pictures and will post some later. We visited some cemeteries that his family were buried in. I remember going to the cemetery on time as a child. This is the first time in my adult life that I have went to a cemetery on Memorial weekend. It was a touching event for me. I had never met any of the people that we "visited", still in some weird way felt connected to them. We did get the chance to go to the old farm house and look around the place. I learned many stories and tales of Ms. Ruby's childhood. She grew up in Neosho, Mo. It is a REALLY small town just inside the Missouri line. I hope that from here on out I will be able to pay respect to my loved ones that have passed on during this time. Just a little thought I had and wanted to share.
