The days of the mourners are upon us, but as the way of life and its cycles, so are the days of the regalers. Melissa Shoffner will not be attending Ed and Pam's wedding due to the the passing of her grandmother earlier this week and the subsequent funeral. Guy and Maddie Tucker will be at the wedding, after Maddie's father's service on Friday morning, he passed a couple of days ago after succumbing to his battle with failing health. Maddie, Guy, Mel, Kay Jenni and I convened at the Chatterbox last night to do a little commiserating and a little fellowshipping and basically to get the minds off the losses and passing. DAvid Andrichik also had news of a passing of sorts, the old Chattervan has gone to the great salvage, and last night he and Travis speed up to Penske Honda to take possession of the 'new' Chattervan, a 2004 Odyssey with under 35,000 miles on it. She looked beautiful glistening in the waning sunlight as I drove by on my evenings shift change. Before the shift, before the Van or the bereaved there was The Brooks and the Greens having their way with the patio. Then the crew described above started to assemble (some assembly is always required), then out of the blue Pam Walker came a walking with her friend in from Atlanta Beth Volpert-SerreroJenni left, Pam and Beth left, Guy and Maddie left, Nicci got there and brought me much needed thumb exercise in the form of her rock hard back which I massaged for a few minutes. Jim Kelly and his wife Hadley popped in as I was popping out, and just like that it was over.
The photo of The 5 Boobs (Beth Chuck and Pam) was taken by Mel Shoffner
