I know we'll get through this, but I still miss him terribly. Going out to Oregon for Christmas felt so strange. I will always think of that beautiful home as "Mom and Bill's." Hard not to have him greet me at the door... or hug me goodbye...Leshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08345657431432380804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22415234.post-36602138838990365582014-01-06T17:31:38.556-08:002014-01-06T17:31:38.556-08:00Thank you, Trish.
