Living and Dying with Grace

I have mentioned my brother-in-law Doug to you in a previous post. He has been battling brain cancer for 11 months and lost his battle this past Tuesday surrounded by his wife, my sister Margaret, of 30 years and his daughter Susan,(who was married to Kenny Muller on March 24th with her Dad watching at her side, thankfully,) and his dog Red, who was his companion on his many hikes including the entire Appalachian Trail. He had his "oldies" playing in the back ground, a lavender candle glowing and his two girls by his side. He never once lost his good humor and was always an inspiration to us all. We will miss you Doug.
Be well and enjoy every day.
Patty

Thanks for your support and your adventure with Doug on the trail. You helped make his final days on the trail great memories. It was inspirational, tk
