Title: Thanks for the much needed support
Post by: HelsbysCustomCalls on November 28, 2010, 07:21:22 AM
I just wanted to thank everyone for all the support you gave me, Sally, and the rest of the family during the loss of my parents. It's been really tough on us for well over a month now. Just reading the kind words everyone has written, makes the healing process a lot easier. My dad asked me to build the box that he and mom would spend the rest of eternity in, and although it was the source of many tears, It was also the last gift I was able to give to my parents. I thought I would post some of the pictures of it, except the 2 ends that contains personal messages to my parents.

This is the top. Dad was an avid hunter, and loved duck hunting. I thought it would be fitting to have a drake, and his hen flying off together.

Mom always loved Lilacs. I picked them for her every year when they were in bloom since I was in public school.
