Passing of Uncle Brad

As we were loading the car for a ski trip to Big White, we received the heartbreaking phone call that Brian's Uncle Brad, his mom's brother, had suddenly died from a heart attack. It was a huge shock and a devastating blow to the family. Brian's immediate thoughts were of his mom and Grandpa. My heart is broken for my mother-in-law, since she is living my worst nightmare, of losing your only sibling and brother.

Brian decided to drive with us up to Canada, and then catch a flight from Kelowna to Omaha, NE for the funeral. Brian said the funeral was wonderful and some awesome stories were told about Uncle Brad. Uncle Brad was quite the comedian, so I can only imagine what the stories involved. We'll miss you Uncle Brad!
