Carolyn picked us up this morning for the grave side service for Joyce in Utica. It was one of the coldest mornings of the winter with a strong NW wind. Fortunately, people stayed in their cars until the service began and Zabka Mortuary did have a small shelter set up to accommodate the 10-12 people in attendance. She had been cremated and the Urn was buried after Rev. Dale Lambert had a brief, but very appropriate service. We were back in Seward for our regular noon meal. This evening we did some checking on dates and found that it was in 2002 that Joyce spent several weeks with various surgeries at Bryan Hospital Lincoln. The Doctors at that time indicated she would never be able to live alone in her house. She spent some time at Madonna, extended care at the Seward Memorial Hospital, the Greene House and for the last several years, at Ridgewood here in Seward. Now she is Home.
