A Passing

Today I reflect on the life of my father-in-law, Paul Cooksey, who passed away on Wednesday. He was a navy pilot and a successful attorney, who finally lost his battle with diabetes and Alzheimer's. We will miss his smile and distinctive laugh.

Otherwise, it's been a very busy time. I enjoyed speaking at the Orange Blossom Guild in Visalia on Thursday last week, then we hi-tailed it home so that I could get ready for a retreat in Santa Barbara. Now I'm home making final preparations for a mini-workshop tomorrow afternoon in Tustin through Flying Geese Quilters.

I promise lots of photos when I catch my breath.
