The Giant City lodge serves meals family style, just what a group like ours needs.
Dan did the group photo honors.
I had to move into the shade so my forehead wouldn't blow the camera...
...and then it was off to a private cemetery where only a couple families have loved ones. Susan began documenting immediately.
But, we had serious business.
We had folks from Illinois, Missouri, Tennessee, Wisconsin, Florida, New Mexico, and Austria...
...becuase we were burying a loved one who was a husband, father, grandfather, and Marine.
It was a day that will be remembered.

I know the grandsons will never forget it. I had the easy job of digging; they filled in the grave. Much harder to do.
