Sad ending to Kirsti's trip

Kirsti has spent most of her time over the last 8 weeks helping nurse her Mom who has had a whole array of health issues. Yesterday it ended with her Mom passing away in her sleep in the comfort of her home. It came as no surprise to anyone but still a sad time for everyone. Kirsti has been burning the candle at both ends recently and has still managed to miss 2 weeks work. Dan and I both look forward to her return Thursday and helping her ease back into her normal routine. Her Dad plans to continue on at home for now but will probably get some help from her brother Bobby who lives about 3 hours away. Shirley will be remembered as a kind and generous women and evryone will miss her. Sorry to bumout the blogusphere but I firured you would all want to know.
