Family together by maggiemae

Family together

On the left is Joy, then Glenda, John in front, Alison and then Sid, Glenda's husband. I'm at the back.
Three of the daughters met up at our brother-in-law's funeral and as usual, we had a great time.

Three good things:
1. I didn't take this photo but the waiter did and nobody had their eyes shut.
2. it was a beautiful funeral and my slideshow was very important.
3. The flowers were absolutely beautiful - will post a pic later.
Awesome group shot

Very nice family capture. Glad you had a good time even if it was after a funeral.

Chat is a truly lovely family photo....you all look so good & it's beautifully staged....we'll done your waiter. Funerals of someone who has had a long & happy life can be rather jolly occasions I find....I would hope my funeral would be such! I am sure you all enjoyed the slide show too.

@happypat I do agree - people who have had a bad life - prison, drugs, violence for e.g., do not have jolly funerals!

What a super family portrait - the death of a loved one can be their last gift to their family by way of bringing everyone together. Thank you for sharing this .

@snaphappi Nice thought from you Maggie - a last gift - and a lasting memory!

What a lovely family shot. Love when family gets together even if for sad events. It's so fun to reminisce.

@amandal Sharing memories within a family is such a privilege, Amanda. Your family will do the same!

@maggiemae - not being nice. just telling the truth!
November 18th, 2014  
@maggiemae We had a lovely visit when we had my Grandma's memorial a few years ago...lots of laughter, lots of tears. Love the sweet memories.

So nice to have a shot of you all together. I like the comments about people being able to enjoy funeral gatherings, it's nice that this can happen despite the sad occasion.

Full family get togethers only ever happen here when someone dies!
November 18th, 2014  
Great that you could all be together! Nice group shot!

What a beautiful family portrait!! It's always what happens at funerals - after the sad part at the beginning you can all reminiscence and tell wonderful stories afterwards. That's families for you!!

What a lovely family portrait. Wedding and funerals ... sometimes the only time we see some of our relatives.
November 19th, 2014  
Wow - you have a really strong family resemblance happening - I'm sure it's the smile - a lovely send-off for your brother-in-law.
