Wednesday morning we said goodbye to Grandma's cousin Roger. Family from all over the country including his siblings from the south gathered in Conway to pay their respects to this loving, strong, family oriented man who was lost too soon. Though it was a sad reason to get together, it was nice to see everyone, some of whom I haven't seen since I was a kiddo. After the service, some of us headed over to the Conway Tavern for some drinks to toast Roger while we caught up on life and reminisced about our times with him. It's never easy to say goodbye, but the silver lining was reconnecting with this awesome family of mine that I'm so grateful for. Hopefully next time we'll be getting together under happier circumstances.
Have a great weekend - make sure to hug the ones you love extra tight!
xoxo,
