Cade's uncle Johnny Hughes passed away in March. He had been battling prostate and liver cancer for years and was just put on hospice in the middle of the month. The family decided to invite extended family over to say goodbye since he likely didn't have many days left to live. They thought that would be a great celebration of life instead of doing a funeral. I am glad Cade was able to go say goodbye and be with family for that short weekend because 4 days later, Johnny passed away. My memories with him were always good. He loved to laugh and joke and give hugs while holding a beer in his hand. He loved his family and his brothers. It's crazy that our aunts and uncles are in that older age where we need to take advantage of the time we get with them. We will pray for Aunt Virginia during this hard time and change in life. Maybe someday we will get to share our testimonies of eternal families. I am very grateful for the knowledge of Heavenly Fathers plan for us.
