The other stuff said at funerals is nice, but the personal details are what makes you truly appreciate the person you're paying respects to, and the profound loss the family will feel. We all got a real sense of how awesome a father and husband he was. We're a lucky group, you know. And pretty rare, from what I've learned. We don't stay in touch every day, and have to play catch-up when we meet, but we still meet. Almost 10 years after high school. Its downright unusual, and so great. The line between friends and family is a really blurry one for me. Kristine and her mother’s eulogies for Mr.Archer were beautiful.

Kristine - if you are reading this, thoughts and hugs go out to you and your family. Love, Allie Inevitably we are all getting older – stuff like this makes us realize it a little more fully I think.
