Family

Some of you may or may not know, my mother's youngest brother, Douglas, passed away on May 4, 2008. We had to make a quick trip to Wolf Point for the funeral and to be with family. It is always nice to see family, I just wish it was for a more joyous event.

Mike took a few pictures, Walker took a lot more and I am waiting for her to send them to me. So am I going to post a few of the pictures that we have.

Uncle Doug's oldest and youngest grandson's and their parents. Jack, Vanessa, Dougie and Stone

Getting ready to say "goodbye" to Dougie
My mom, Cecelia, giving Dougie a hug
What's this??? A smile from my brother Jonnie (my little, middle brother) in a picture??? Better save this one on the desktop!! (I love you, Jonnie!!)
Dougie and his son, Stone (12 years old)
Three of the original "bad boys" plus 2 of the "next generation": Jimmy (Uncle Larry's son), Dougie, Corey with his daughter("next generation"-Uncle Cowboy's oldest grandson), Charlie ("next generation"-Auntie Desiree's son) and J.D. (my little, big brother) Auntie Desiree with Dougie
Grandma Aggie and Dougie

My Aunt Desiree's friends helped to prepare the feast at Grandma's house. It was very nice. This was the first time that I can remember that none of the family had to do any cooking or much of the clean up (thank you girls!!)

Uncle Doug was one of 12 siblings, the youngest son and the first to pass away. My grandmother is 90 and will be 91 in July. It was very hard for her to lose a child. It was hard to see my grandma so sad. She is such a strong, tough lady and I love her so much!!
