Aunt helen Funeral
Monday, June 16, 2014, 06:00 PM
We had an early breakfast then left at 7:45 for the 8 AM wake at Sheenans. We met the whole Cybulski family as well as all of Arlene and Vicki's kids. Aunt Helen looked nice in a pink dress. With makeup she looked good lying there. A picture of she and Fred at the 25th Anniversary was on the table. At 9:45 we left for the church for the 10 AM funeral. My car was first behind the hearse with Arlene, Rich and Libbie as passengers. We slowly went to Our Lady of Fatima and parked in the turn around. Mass was very very long but I guess this is what my sisters wanted. There were many songs which were nice. Then we processed out. I stopped to speak with Doris after the funeral but she wasn't staying. Spoke with David who is an incredible bore with all his medical conditions. We had a nice graveside service at which Rich gave a very nice touching talk about Aunt Helen and how she lived life to the fullest. I was brought to tears by the touching remembrance. We placed a flower on the coffin and it was over. Went to Arlenes for a reception afterwards. Ellie and David bought the Deli food from the corner Deli. It was very good. We returned there in the evening for dinner. I had chicken Parmesan which was quite good and a long time since I had this. I had it with a Lemon Shandy beer which was not the greatest. This is a nice little bar and restaurant on the corner - name is Ellie's Deli. They have a pizza oven and serve pizza and pasta. The salad was quite good as well with Olive oil and balsamic vinegar. We walked back home which helped walk off some of the food and beer. It was a nice day even though it was a funeral. Heard from Bev later in the day about the jewelry she made for Christa's birthday. She got the check that I was worried was not mailed.
