And so, last night was the Big Event of the weekend, the Pot Luck Dinner at the Smith Family Home.
WOW! There were probably 30 or more friends and family gathered at this event. The children that so many of us have
witnessed growing up, are now parents themselves, with their own toddlers, who were all there. This alone would have made for a special
time for me, as I love being in the presence of children, each one so precious and unique. The fact that so many of Sara's friends were there is a testament
to how many people's lives she touched.
Everybody brought something delicious and that had been a favorite of Sara's to eat. Devon, Sara's daughter passed around
a small voice recorder for each of us to share our memories on. At this point,
many tears were shed hearing this testimony. Mostly we laughed and thoroughly enjoyed our evening together.
A good time was had by all.
I look forward to Christmas time, when we will likely see each other again at the annual Smith Christmas Gathering!
Thank you Sara for enriching our lives so. We love you girl!
