Good evening.Nice to be back home after a very busy day. The Celebration of life was very nice .We or most of us did our speech. I chose to be the last one.I figured hearing a few before me will set me up and it did.I started off saying to them please forgive if I seem nervous and I am. they gave me a few applaud.Then went on to finished my saying. People did give me confidant in speaking. Whew!that is done.Now many asked about why a rock. Well Tom was his wife rock.She is going to build a memorial in her yard. Not sure how she is going to set this up. then she will notify us to stop by and see if we liked it. I do want to see it. I took a photo of some of the rock .Hope it comes out. The sail boat is Tom.He loved this boat and love to sail I am worn out and hit the sack early tonight.

I'm glad your speech went well. I've seen rock gardens and they are very nice. I'm sure that one will be as well.
