Endings and New Beginnings

Hey all,

This weekend I was in Raleigh, NC for a wake for an old friend and a wedding of a great friend's son.  

David Sendek, died before his time, and it was incredible sad, and hard to wrap my head around.  He was a gentle spirit and will be missed in this world.  My flight was such I could not get to the funeral but went by the home to speak to the family.  It was good to see them pull together to support each other and good to renew acquaintance with folks I haven't seen since the 70's.

On a happy note, I got to see two families come together to celebrate the wedding of their children, Sally and Steven.  It was so much fun.  Here are a few of my favorite photos...

Sue and Bill, parents of the groom, welcome all to the rehearsal dinner.

At the end of the night, Bill looks pretty happy!
