Almost home!

Coming in towards George, there was a beautiful sunset, but, by this time we had to have all stuff securely put away for the landing.
On Saturday we had a second memorial service for my Mom in Roodepoort (Johannesburg);  it was a beautiful spring day and the family and friends who attended were all such special and beloved people.

The service concluded with beautiful memories shared by her children and grandkids, and afterwards we gathered for tea and much appreciated snacks.

Despite the sadness of the occasion, we had good laughs about fond things we remembered and shared once again.
Of the fondest memories were Mom's laughter and positive outlook; her ability paint most things with a rosy shine was mentioned again and again.

So, with sadness, also much gratefulness for her life, I am privileged to say my goodbye to her, but just for the present.
