Sue has received many, many phone calls and e-mails from people offering condolences. Chris appeared at the door early yesterday morning to be with "Mama" through whatever she needed. Shelly offered to take both Sue and me to have our nails done. And Chris, Shelly, and her relative helper 'elves' are putting together a luncheon for after the service on Monday.

Suzanne and Doug (The Hollensbes) invited us for dinner this evening, but we have had to decline because Scott and family are arriving.

Shirley is in Chicago and will be returning Saturday. I have cancelled my trip this time. Leslie will be coming in Sunday for the visitation and will stay with us Sunday evening.

We have room to put any out-of-towners up at the Oakland House which remains empty.

Aaron and Kim went over to the facility early yesterday and emptied Den's room, a difficult task but a great help. Kim plans to send a plant to the facility staff who were of such support and help through this difficult journey.
