The day I had been dreading all week was finally here...
Having to say our final good bye's and closing the casket
was something I was not looking forward too.
Frank Layden (former Utah Jazz coach) came through
to pay his respects and he was so cute with all the
great grandkids. He was shaking their hands and asking
what their names were, made them feel real special.
It was time to say our final good byes, I was a complete
mess. It was just so surreal that he was really gone. My kids
were also very emotional, Brooklin especially. She was sobbing
and when you see your child hurting, naturally you hurt for them.
This is really the first death they are old enough to really remember
and process. We all managed to keep it together until Grandma went
to say her final thoughts and my heart was breaking for her.
It was then time to follow the casket into the chapel to proceed
with the service. The program went like this -
