The Interment

Dad's place of burial is in Mohrsville, PA, about one hour and forty five minutes from Gettysburg. We were the first car behind the hearse until the funeral director had to pull over to use the bathroom, then we were the lead car!
Family and friends gather in the Mohrsville Church of the Brethren parking lot.

Pallbearers from left to right: My three brothers, Mike, Tim, Dave, my oldest son Brady, husband Dale and nephew Ridge.

We started out with a little bit of rain, just enough to get on the lens of my camera and mess up my pictures!

CJ smells his flower from Pappy's spray of flowers.

The funeral director picked this plaque for on the top of Dad's burial vault... perfect!!

We were tickled to be able to see the side of Mom's vault so close to Dad's!

Kaden was being bashful, so I helped him.

This picture is funny to me! My uncle is a soil scientist. You can see him in the background examining the soil!

When people were no longer watching, then Kaden decided he wanted to throw some dirt onto Pappy's grave.

I love this picture of my parent's final resting place!

I took some of the coxcombs from the arrangement I had been sent and placed them at my parent's graves.

After the interment we all went out to eat at Infinitos.

Cousin Fern is currently in the States from South Korea. Here she is giving each of the kids a Korean coin.Seeing the Korean money was a big hit, especially when everyone got some to keep!

The rain ended early and left us with a very nice day for Dad's burial. Parting with family at the end wasn't too bad knowing we'll see each other in one week for a family reunion.
