A day full of revisiting history. My cousin and I took at trip to Strome for the funeral of my grandmothers last sibling, Marcella, who lived to 100. We saw the old historical St.Peters church along with a random stop at the Strome museum so find the bridesmaid dress from my grandmothers wedding that Marcella wore. On the way out of the museum we saw the family tree quilt of my grandmother and her siblings. The day was complete with a visit with my third cousin who I hadn’t seen for years. Before heading home, we went to my grandmothers grave and did a drive by the old house in Camrose where I had so many good memories.
Life is precious and yesterday was a reminder about how beautiful family can be despite the messy parts.
