God Bless Omie

On the same day Jesus was put to death our beloved Omie and Big Old Omie, as Karagen so proudly named her went to be with The Lord and my Opie after 12 long years without him. Yes, we are very sad because we miss her so much but the tears we shed are also tears of joy. She is with Opie once again.

I will always remember her "magic key" hiding right behind the light on the wall. When I was little I loved to hide in the bathroom and get into anything I can. She'd always get in with her key. I think I was probably 13 before she finally showed me where the key was hidden. She also loved to cook huge meals for our family. I have to say she was an awesome cook. No one can make spaghetti noodles like her. You can read more about her on my sister and cousin Shelia's blogs.

This song is going to be played at her funeral on Tuesday. What a wonderful way to remember a wondrful loving women.
