On Sunday, November 20, 2011 the Pine Ridge Care Center, Dad's home, invited the families of all their residents for a special feast.
The staff and their families made the entire feast enjoyable for all by serving everyone and making sure all were having a great time.
Here is a short video where a violinist is playing a familiar tune (especially for all my Texas family and friends) and shows Dad making his entrance. When the video begins to wave a bit it is because Dad is hugging me.
Here are some photos of the event:

How fun for everyone. Sound like you had a great time. You will have these times to remember and to carry you through.
