Sad news

Saturday was a quieter day, we all got together again and we all went out for dinner at a little Mexican Restaurant in Magna called El Habanero, we all enjoyed the food.
On Sunday, Sandy fixed a wonderful breakfast of bacon and sausages, hash brown potatoes, scrambled eggs and rolls. After a while Jeff went back to their Hotel to nap (his back had been bothering him), and we just hung out and talked, we were planning on going to Costco for lunch, when Lizzie got a call from Jeff saying his sister had called him to say their father had an apparent heart attack and was in the hospital. Jeff's father is a preacher and he lives close to Seattle, Washington. Jeff told Lizzie he was waiting for more news, but they decided to drive to Seattle and go see him. Marvin and I and the girls went to Costco for lunch and then took Lizzie back to the hotel and wished them a good trip to Seattle (868 miles from Salt Lake City, quite a long drive). Shortly after we got home, Lizzie called saying Jeff's father had died. He was only 58 years old. They drove to Idaho and spent the night in Burley, where we used to live, and drove to Washington Monday morning.
May he rest in peace.

So sad for Jeff and Lizzie. I will be thinking of them in this time of sorrow.

When are you going back to La Mirada?

Say hi to everyone and a big hug for you all.
Love you! Mia :-)
