After

After the funeral we all met up at the Starlight cafe in Vale. I have some pictures of that somewhere but I'll have to post them later. It was nice to just  be able to chat with those who attended and get to know the family a little bit better. After we left Vale we all joined up at my parents house to hang out just with the family. 

Aunt Angie, Maia, Ezra, Jason.

We wanted to get some pictures of the four brothers together, as the next time they would probably all be together again would be for another funeral. 

We also wanted some pictures of Grandma with her boys.

Bradley, Angie and Ben. 

Mom, Papa, Sandy, Ross, Grandma, Merle Lynn, Carrie and Joseph.

Aunt Cathy, Uncle Larry, Aunt Donna, Uncle Vern and Ezra.

Ezra, Jason and Aaron.

Maia loved eating all the fresh watermelon.

Aaron got to go for a ride on Uncle Ross's motorcycle. This was one of the things that, as children, we looked forward to. It was a very special treat when we got to go on a ride with Uncle Ross. 

At breakfast Maia became a good friend with Uncle Vern and his spoon. 

Last breakfast with Uncle Ross. (Ross, Grandma, Vern, Maia, and Donna).
