I also helped her finish up the necessary sweat-equity hours with Habitat for Humanity and she will be closing on her new home in June.
My second nephew graduated high school last weekend in Baltimore. The next day, the family drove over to Gettysburg to visit Pop's grave and see the stone in place. The three grandsons presented a cross to the parish that my brother had made. The cut squares on the cross depict the stations of the cross. Father was so pleased to receive it and felt it would be perfect to carry during the stations ceremony next Lent/Easter!
