Family

My brother, Stan, passed away today.  It is a sad day.  There seems to be some confusion over family, it is alright, there is confusion over family all the time.  Stan lived his life his way, brought up his children his way, and died his way.  But there is one thing that Stan couldn't do and that was change his family roots, even if he wanted to.  We are all from family, does not matter if it is small or great, it is family.  Our family tree has branches all over the place, if it were growing in my front yard it would probably look fairly bushy in most parts and Grady's family tree would overlap and share 2 roots.  There is a lot to think about when family is concerned, but it is clear, that family can't be changed or altered once it IS.
