A Sad Reunion
Normally when you reunite with friends its for a good reason, but yesterday wasn't the case. Me, Tommy, Jason, Dan, Matt, Sarah, Stevie, and Ashly all met up to say goodbye to Tommy's dad. He passed away on Easter Sunday. I didn't find out until Rebecca told me and then I had the painful task to tell Jason and Joy. Joy couldn't bring herself to go and Jason refused to believe it. I didn't want to either. Thats why distracting myself by cleaning worked. For about two minutes. After that, I started to cry. It was very hard to deal with the fact that one of your best friends was going through that and nothing you can say can make them feel any better. I felt more for Anita, Tommy's mom. She went to school with my mom but she was also like a second mother to me, so it hurt to see her that way. Tommy had to hold her as they wheeled the coffin away. I had to turn before I cried. We finally went to the graveyard and we put roses on Dale's (Tommy's dad) coffin. It was so sad. But we finally said our goodbyes. It was weird all of us standing together. Matt's mom, Pam, called all of us her young'uns and we were. We are. I am so going to miss us when we all go our seperate ways. But then...thats life.
