We will begin gathering tomorrow in Faribault - my mom and her 8 brothers, their spouses, my cousins, and our children. Lots of people, lots of stories, lots of laughter and tears to be shared. It will be a celebration of life, and we will ease each other's pain as families do in these times of sorrow.
