Adam’s Funeral

As we got into the car to go to the funeral, the radio was playing the tail end of Blessed Be Your Name. During the funeral, they sang Imagine. Then we heard it on the radio as we pulled out of the parking lot to go to the cemetery. Then, as we pulled out of the cemetery, Held, a song about coping with the loss of a child, was playing on the radio. I couldn’t take it anymore. I turned off the radio.

I got to eat lunch with my old music teacher. He’s the one who got me to play trumpet. I don’t think he really remembered me, but we talked. It was good.

Todd officiated the ceremony today. He said this was his third funeral in five days. And this was his vacation week.

Time to pack up for phase two of our “furlough.” Next stop – Indy.
