My wonderful Wife passed away at home Tuesday morning, with her mother Patricia and I holding her hands long after she died. It was an experience that can only be acknowledged by those who have gone through it. Most certainly it has affected Pat & I, and we will never be alone,for the host have honored us. Pat says we were awake for 38 hours straight, can't say she's wrong, because I didn't notice. I've enclosed a copy of the obituary, penned by Lori's sisters Carla & Lynn, and our nieces Brigitte & Kailey. Can't describe the avalanche of events that took place in the last three weeks, too much happened. Our decision to bring Lori home from UW Madison was made after no reasonable hope was offered by the teams of doctors tasked with her care. Hospice of St. Margarets brought their girl home, and we were swarmed with visitors for the last ten days. I thank BlackBart for his support, and for the well wishes and prayers offered on the thread he posted. For myself, this was a storm that couldn't be avoided. Back wind the foresail, reef the main, and put the helm hard over. All that could be done has been done, time to trust to providence, and ride the fury hove-to and battened.

Thank you everyone for your kindness. Thanks Loader, for some dumb reason Lori got a kick out of meeting you, go figure. http://www.hurstfuneralhomes.com/notices/Lori-Brophy That's the direct link to Hurst Funeral obits, so you don't have to download the text document. Feel free to light a candle on their website. Here's a picture of Lori sitting in front of the Biltmore mansion in Asheville. Gonna be a blast setting up her easels for the visitation, we have a mountain of pictures from everywhere we wandered. I couldn't sleep this morning, and in my aimlessness wove a six foot long four pleat braid with double wall & crown knots on the ends. That will be laid as a wreath under her hands. Only the hospital folks will know what it means, because I was forever knotting and braiding while I paced their floors.

Now I can clearly see, and they ( the successful ones) stand out now.
