Soon after returning from Nova Scotia, I came down to Brevard, NC, to be with Don, and remember his departed Wife, Mary, in both church service, and putting her ashes next to her brother behind Don's house. It was a profound experience, and a great celebration of Mary's life for all of us.
Here are pictures mostly from Don's house, and the wonderful gathering of friends and relatives.

Don told the story about all of the American cheese manufacturers who were tired of selling shredded cheese, and had
agreed to sell just blocks and wedges of cheese in order to "Make America Grate Again" Thus the expressions of
hilarity amongst the many who joined together for a quick group portrait before the ceremony.
