Darin made us very proud at his first public performance. He played an "On Eagles Wings" which has become our family song since being played at our wedding, Keaton's memorial service, Mackenzie's confirmation and Mason's baptism (in this exact church). He also accompanied my cousin Amanda as she performed her own song.
Other than the priest and the deacon, all participants in the mass were family members. My aunt and uncle were lectors, my parents carried the gifts and my nephew Tanner was the alter server.
Below, Darin and cousin Kayla (who played Amazing Grace on the flute) arrived early to rehearse.
The service was followed by a reception in the church hall. What a wonderful tribute to my grandmother!
We miss you, G.G.
