Eric's Father Died

Thank you everyone for your well wishes and condolences for Eric's father's death. After his parents divorced when he was 11 he did not have much contact with Jeff, but he still feels a lot of emotions and has many responsibilites in the settling of his affairs as well as the funeral. Of course this is very hard for him. Lots of old wounds have been opened and it will take time to heal. Our kids & I did not know him at all, so this is a little confusing for all of us. Grampa George is who they know as Eric's dad. Although he is Eric's step father, he raised Eric into the man we know and love. The funeral will be Thursday. Jeff was a military man who retired from the Air Force and so he is having a military burial with a flag covered coffin. It will be a very nice service. Your prayers for peace and healing would be very appreciated.
