The End of an Era

 

Today the Carsons & McFarlands met at Mom & Dad's home to clean out what Mom & Dad have accumulated throughout the years, & now no longer need. (Mom & Dad have recently moved to the Reformed Presbyterian Home in Pittsburgh) All the siblings, grandchildren, and in laws came to help.
It was a sweet time, but sad too.....

The house in New Castle is to be sold; ironically the news came today that a person interested in buying it wants to tour it tomorrow. Good news in this housing market!
But, today was a day to ponder things, to remember good times, to reflect on precious family memories.

A special blessing was watching the grandchildren being involved, interested, and supportive.
Afterward we met up once again in Pittsburgh, at the Home, to visit Mom & Dad & encourage them as they deal with life changes that are necessary,
and to honor them.

It's not an easy thing to leave your home behind.
