A Life Well Lived

This past week My Uncle Passed away. It has taken me a week of reflection to decide to post something about it here on my blog. My Uncle was a kind and thoughtful person with a fabulous sense of humor. I know so many times when I was young he was a calming force that helped me reflect and move forward with many endeavors. My Uncle was battling Cancer like so many others world wide. Someday I hope there is a cure. I know just this month several friends have lost family members to cancer as well. My Uncle was someone I feel lucky to have known and even luckier to have been related to. Uncle Bob helped others encouraged friends and family and was just a kind person. I will miss him greatly. I couldn't go back to the US for the funeral which is hard, but I knew when I left that I wouldn't be able to. One of the down sides to military life. I have heard from friends and family and thanks to everyone the distance didn't seem so far. I wanted to dedicate a post to him and his family. To let them all know that they are loved and thought of everyday. I hope in the coming months that all those close to my Uncle find peace and comfort. My Uncle's life was short but a life well lived. My love to everyone.
