On Sunday, November 25th we had a celebration for Nathan's dad (Lamar). He was diagnosed with cancer about a year ago, but seems to be responding to the treatments he has been receiving. Most of Nathan's siblings and their families attended (we missed Cathy and Pat). We started with a yummy dinner prepared by Connie. After we ate we gathered in the family room and talked about memories of Lamar. It was nice to see the photos and hear about stories from their childhoods and about how much they love their dad. Scott (the oldest son)shared a special song that he dedicated to his dad. After everyone shared their thoughts, stories and feelings Lamar shared a few stories about living in Birds Eye and Salt Lake. Nathan video taped it so that we could put it on a DVD for everyone to have. The time went so quickly I am not even sure how long we spent. We laughed and we cried. It was a very special night.
