Sadness

Today we heard the news that one of our dearest friends has died and we are all overcome with sadness.
Eric had never really recovered after a major heart attack eighteen months ago, but recently he had been doing so well and even had managed to travel out to his beloved France this summer.
He and his wife had been lovingly restoring a little stone village house for the past ten years and we would meet up with them every year to see what they had been up to.

He was one of the nicest, gentlest, kindest men you could ever wish to meet.
He will be greatly missed by all his friends
.... and my heart goes out to Sue.

A Bientot Eric ... no more pain xxx

    Yes, the red cider barn... very typical of fall in the midwest part of America at least. :-) One of the many reasons I love living here.
