The Fischers: Saying Goodbye to Lorraine

Saying Goodbye to Lorraine

Gregg and I went to Venice,Ca to help clean out his sister Lorraine's apartment. She passed away on September 9th. She never married or had children. My other sister-in-laws were there and my niece and nephew with their spouses. We had a long, hard day of going through things. We had a yard sale all day so I was taking things out constantly and she lived upstairs. So my legs got a good workout. We reminisced about memories, loved seeing pictures, kept some mementos, and just had a nice time being with each other. It was my nephew Bret's 1st wedding anniversary, so at the end of the day we went to dinner at Baja Cantina, in Venice Beach. It was wonderful to spend time with the other side of my family that I seldom get to see. I just wish it could have been under better circumstances.

Bret and Lauren, happy anniversary!

Aynsley, Aaron, Debra and Gregg

Being crazy!

These are my friends, the Laurels. For those of you who aren't LDS that is the name of the class we were in at church. We recently had a reunion after 35 yrs. Our lives have taken many different paths, some of us might not have spoken to or seen each other for most of these years, yet we remain sisters in heart and in the gospel. We spent the evening reminiscing about our teen years, college, marriage, kids, and what is going on with our lives now. How much fun was that! We brought photo albums to look through, ate a terrific dinner and played a game where we wrote 3 things about us and then we drew them out of a jar and read them and tried to guess who wrote it. There were some really funny things, spiritual things, and just plain fun things to learn about each other. I think this is a little taste of what heaven will be like when we are all reunited again for eternity! Not many people can say they have friends like these and I am so grateful to be a part of their lives.
