Well, Dad is home and resting behind the glass of our entertainment center in the living room. I didn't buy an urn.....hubby is going to make an oak box and we will purchase a brass plate and have it engraved. The cremains are given to you in a rectangle plastic (sealed) container......I'd say it weighs 6 to 8lbs. The funeral guy told us that the remains are not ashes, it is more like sand. I shook Dad, it sounds like sand. It's very strange having your father in a box sitting in your entertainment center.........I thought it would be kinda creepy, it's not.

We also went to the prison to drop of the paperwork......saw Miss Anderson. She will be reading my thank you letter at the Memorial (that we cannot attend) on Monday.

I'm glad this is over with.......I'm exhausted.
