Thu, 18:56: “Celebration of Life” picnic memorial for Aunt Raenae today, at Mason Lake Recreation Area, a perennial family gathering spot—many summers camping in my childhood, many family picnics in my adulthood. Unfortunately “family reunions” and “family picnics” over the past decade seem to have evolved into all-too-frequent memorials.
It was lovely getting together and sharing memories today. Aunt Raenae was such a staple at these events, though, I kept half-expecting to see her there, saying something about the food, or offering her signature chuckle.
