I have been away for quite a while and I must apologize for not keeping you all in the loop. Life is going well for all of us, the boys are doing well in school and I'm fully back into the swing of the work world.
As you know from past posts, Katie and I spent a bit of time shopping for our final resting place. While she wanted to know where we were going to be, she didn't really feel the need to direct the arrangements of her service or the other aspects of memorials and the such. She did however say that she really liked the idea of having a bench that folks could come and visit, and since we have such a nice quiet spot by the creek a bench was the perfect memorial.
Shortly after Katie's passing I decided to order her bench and after a long wait it finally arrived.
Take care all,
Kevin

So happy to see a post pop up from you. I think of you often and pray that God continues his prechiou care of your beautiful family. The bench is the perfect place to sit a spell, reflect, read a note, chat, and just listen to the gifts of nature. It's exactly what I think Katie would love. Thanks for sharing. Happy to see that everyone is doing well.
Thanks for the update and the photo of the boys. I know Katie must of been smiling from above when that bench was installed at her resting place.
Glad to hear that you are all trying to get back into the throws of "normal" life once again.
What a beautiful bench! I can't get over how big the boys are getting - Katie must be beaming from above :) So glad to hear that you all are doing well...I think of you all (and Katie) often.
It is beautiful! It's perfect! Thank you for the update!

Fabulous picture of the boys and I'm glad to hear everyone is doing well! Thank you for sharing.
What a lovely memorial Kevin - so glad to hear you are all doing well!
So happy to hear you are all well and to see the boys looking so grown and healthy. The bench and spot are beautiful. Your earthly memorial is the perfect complement to the memorial we all hold for her in our hearts.

Such a lovely idea. It is beautiful and a very special place for you to visit and reflect.
The bench is just perfect and it is a very bittersweet photo. I still can't believe that Katie's gone and I got choked up seeing your post. I'm glad that you are all adjusting and doing well. Kids are so resilient! I can't fathom all you've been through and it breaks my heart still. Wishing you continuous healing and happiness to you all. Love from NH!

What a lovely bench. Katie would like it. Thank you for sharing the bench and your sons with us. I do often think of you and the boys. Hugs.
Thank you for the update Kevin. Prayers to you and the boys. The bench and the boys are beautiful.
Thank you for the update. What a lovely bench and a beautiful picture of your handsome boys.
Thanks for sharing Kevin. I think Katie would love this bench, in such a beautiful spot. So glad to hear you're doing well. The boys are sure growing fast!
What a beautiful tribute to a beautiful woman! :)
What a beautiful bench! Now the boys have somewhere to commune with their mommy and remember her. :-) Thank you for keeping us updated.
Oh Kevin - thanks so much for the update - the bench is perfect - your little family will continually be in my heart - blessings
This is so beautiful. Thanks for keeping in touch. :)
Kevin, thanks so much for the picture - the boys have grown so much! It's amazing! I think of you and Katie often. My mother died in January and a colleague was diagnosed with ovarian cancer - she's single, no kids. I think of Katie and her incredible love of life and her generosity of spirit in the way she shared her art with us all. I think the bench is perfect - I've considered one for my mom. I am so grateful for your willingness to keep us updated -- your generosity of spirit.
Such a very touching picture, thank you for sharing.
I love the bench and think Katie would too!! You made a great decision in keeping her memory alive and beautiful!! I thought about you all on Mother's Day and now I'm so happy to hear that all is going well. Kevin, you are a true testament of love, honor, and cherish. Katie was so lucky to have you by her side. Wishing you and the boys much happiness and fun adventures this summer!!

What an awesome memorial. The photo is heart touching. The boys are growing like weeds! If I lived close, I would visit the spot often. Katie's presence will always be felt here. Glad you are all doing well. Best, Curt
Hello! I found you through a little blog stroll at the Moxie Fab World Blog Roll and I am so sorry for your loss. Your wife was a beautiful women and I wish I had started crafting earlier so that I may have had the chance to meet and interact with her in blog land.
May your many happy memories help you through the rough times.

Hi Kevin,
The bench is beautiful & the spot you chose looks so serene & peaceful. A comfortable place for you & the boys to sit & visit with Katie.
Wishing you all a great summer!
Hugs & peace, Vina
I was thinking about Katie today, which I know you do EVERY day :-) It was nice to pop over to "her" blog and find that the memorial bench had arrived. It looks lovely in a truly serene setting. Thanks for keeping us posted. I'm glad every day life is keeping you, if nothing else, distracted. Your boys are turning into young men already and I'm sure Katie would have been proud - as you should be, as you're obviously doing a great job! Sending you loving thoughts from Australia, Donna ☺
Hello Kevin!
I have been checking back so many times and now I waited for a bit and almost missed this post! The bench is lovely and the photo of the boys is beautiful and heart breaking at the same time. They have grown so much! I am happy to read that all is well and you are all healthy and sharing a good life - Katie would be so proud. Thank you for posting, Kevin and for sharing the photo. Katie was a blessing to all of us who came to know her and her smile is missed. Wishing you a happy day today!
Hugs,
Barbara Diane
What a precious, precious memorial and picture. Thank you for posting it. I know you don't have to keep updating, but I'm glad that you recognize how much people love you and want to know how everyone's doing. The boys are getting so big!! Thank you for honoring us, her cyber friend, by updating and sharing with us!
Oops...sorry about that...trying again!...
Dear Kevin --
Katie was on my mind today, so I thought I would stop by and see if you had added any new posts and was very happy to see her Memorial.
I'm touched by the lovely picture you have shared and have thought of you and the boys often. I am happy to hear that you are all doing well and I continue to hope that you are starting to heal, and the can now begin to move forward and cherish your wonderful memories of Katie and her time here, despite it being far too short. She's truly and Angel and my heart makes me feel she is watching over you all and is very happy with your choices and how well you and the boys are doing.
God Bless you all and I will continue to hope you'll move on in your life. I know Katie would love that!
Lisa
Thanks for the update...what a lovely place to come and remember Katie. I thought about her several times yesterday...don't really know why, but I'm glad I stopped by her blog today.
God bless you all.
Was just thinking of you and the boys and wondering how you were doing. Decided to check the blog and here you are updating us again. The picture of the "resting" bench with the boys is priceless. I'm just sure Katie is smiling from up above and so proud of how you have handled all of this…including her blog. Thanks, Kevin, for the update and continue taking care of yourself and the boys. You know that's exactly what Katie wanted. God Bless You and the boys!
You are AMAZING

A lady from Montana staying with us in the B&B reminded me so much of Katie today,it was uncanny. So I decide to check in and what a great picture. The bench looks a great memorial to a grat woman. Looks like the boys are thriving, they have grown so much. Thanks for keeping in touch.
