Duane and his mom drove to Kelowna this am to pack up some of her home there for her to move down here.
It feels so real during moments like this when the change is so pronounced. less than 2 months ago life was normal now life is different and won't be normal again until we figure out our new roles and get used to missing a very important piece of what used to be our life.
I cannot imagine what the intense emotions that both Nicole (MIL) and Duane are going to experience today as they pack up the life of their husband and father. Some things will be left behind until the home sells and they can get back to pack up the rest and that will be hard too...leaving little pieces of a wonderful VERY MISSED man behind! Reality stinks sometimes!
I still miss and think of Lyle daily and wonder what our lives our going to be like for now on in...EVERYTHING has changed for us! EVERYTHING! Yet everyday is easier and everyday starts to feel a little more normal. Life moves on, we laugh, we love and we cry.

Jessica, I am not sure how I started to read your blog, but I totally relate to what you are going through. You see, I was engaged to Lyle 38 years ago and when he found me last year I was in shock. He was a good friend to me and I was blessed to know him again even for a short while. When I was looking for him one day in Sept. I was shocked to find a memory page in his name on Facebook. It was the same day of his memorial in Langley. I was so sad, especially when i stepped out side and saw a beautiful rainbow. If you would like me to carry on, please let me know. Lyle loved you alot and knew you were good for Duane. He was crazy about his grandson, but you already know that! We enjoyed comparing our stories...which were very similar. I respected his marriage and our friendship never crossed the line. He was my special friend. Carol
