And even worse, your circle of friends becomes smaller. We lost a good friend from our Magnolia Park days. Myron Van Houweling. Myron and his wife Susan would meet us at Costco because it was about the same distance for both of us making a meet in the middle situation. And while we were all in Magnolia, Butch, Peggy, and I would stop by their place on Aspen street on at least one of our daily rounds. We will be attending services for Myron tomorrow in Prairie City.
There is a woman in our new park who keeps everyone informed of the happenings in Trophy Gardens. We only know a handful of people in that park but in the message from Trophy sent out yesterday a few sentences from a woman who lost her husband struck a chord. "It’s a path we all face at some time but it’s so hard. You not only lose your spouse but your best friend. Hug each other often. "
