Slept in a bit—then stayed in bed & did some homework—the P.D.P. & preparation for my eulogy at the service.
About 1 P.M. the family joined us & at St. Josephs Church Mike R., Maureen & Dennis joined us. The service was very nice & the Lord was good to me, my Eulogy was very well received. Then every body moved to the Boichs lovely home for a reception. Friends from all over the country were on hand. It was most heart warming.
Back to the hotel & dinner in bed.
