Nina just returned from Chicago after burying ML in the family plot in Forest Park.
As per ML’s request it was just Nina and Christina, her lawyer. I was not even allowed to attend . . . . . thankfully.
Nina picked out the casket and Christina said ML would have loved it. Green.
She died in her sleep Monday morning the 22nd. She was heavily medicated to relieve her pain, so this was blessing.
We now have the chore of disposing of her 2 storage lockers of books and other crap we moved from her condo in Chicago. Most of that stuff is books. Boxes and boxes of books.
There was no notifications in Illinois or New Mexico. We really saw no reason since most of her friends are already gone.
The only thing left for Nina to do is get grave markers for the crew. Did I forget to mention that Nina also brought the cremains of Armand, Shirley, Richard, and Anita for internment in the family plot? I guess I did.
I am a husband, father, grandfather, friend, business owner, traveller, Harley rider, citizen, patriot, gun owner, politically eclectic person of strange personal habits. I support police, trust no politicians, and can argue any side of an argument just to amuse myself. People love me or hate me and those that are in-between don't know me.
