While I am grieved for the news in front of your DH at the time of this sketch, I think this is a marvelous piece of work! I also find that humor is a needed healer in times of tragedy, and you did well here. Excellent sketch!minnemiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03672809552936996783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3069433582032233420.post-28671371906288000392012-07-22T05:55:35.212-07:002012-07-22T05:55:35.212-07:00A tragic event.
