I directed a funeral recently at Kern Funeral Home for two Marine vets (husband and wife) who had passed away. The military tributes were amazing. The Marines brought an honor guard, and the American Legion were well-represented at the cemetery. The group that was very impressive were the volunteer rolling honor guard members who held flags during the chapel service, and then escorted on their motorcycles the funeral coach to the cemetery. At the cemetery, they stood with the flags. It was a most impressive display of honor for this couple's service to our country.

I drove to Everett's Eisenhower Middle School today to speak for an AVID Class of 7th and 8th graders about my work as a funeral director at Kern Funeral Home. The event was set up by Janice Ellis and David Chen, members of the Rotary Club of Everett. From left to right are Elizabeth Person, a graphic artist; Janice Ellis, former Superior Court Judge; James Donaldson, former professional basketball player; me; and Sean Paddock, a computer engineer. Not pictured was Danny Rabelos, police officer with the Everett Police Department. It was interesting to see the looks of amazement on the students when James Donaldson walked the halls of the schools.

Every six months, a gathering is held at the Perinatal Garden at Mount Vernon Cemetery. It is a simple yet moving gathering as we remember young lives lost way too soon. We are honored to have Robin Ozaki, a nurse in the pre-natal unit at Skagit Regional Hospital, and Steve and Heather Colvin, founders of AJ's Place, a wonder organization that provides support for those who have lost an infant child. It has become a wonderful partnership that provides hope and encouragement for those who have experienced a perinatal loss.

I had the privilege to facilitate the Celebration of Life for Don Petit. The gathering was held at Cabana Park in Anacortes, WA, on Saturday, March 23. The Petit family was incredibly gracious, as we laughed and cried as we remembered Don. Duby Petit, thank you for inviting me to facilitate and share with your family.
