its been a week

wow its already been a week since my idaho trip to attend my uncle bills funeral. i miss him so much. i hope all is going well with all my cousins and that life is starting to calm down a bit and find some normalcy for you all. I have already sent off a letter to Jimmy and have another one going in the mail some time this week. Since bills funeral my grandma has come home from the nursing home and is enjoying being back in her own house again. its a crazy life for my dad but he wants her to be where she wants to be. im happy that he is able to do that for her. i wish he had more help from his sisters but i guess we cant have everything. i try to help but he wont tell me what he needs most or what days help more etc so its hard for me to do a whole lot to be helpful. anyway, just wanted all my cousins who may look at this to know that i am thinking about all of you and hope all is going well. take care.

begining blog

hello to all my Heeding cousins! I wanted to take a few minutes to get this blog set up so that we all have a place to start coming and leting one another know how things are going and what everyone is up to. Since it has been twenty something years since I have seen so many of you until the passing this past May of William "Bill" Heeding. I am the grandaughter of Bill's younger brother, Paul, who passed away in 2003. I would like to keep in touch with all of my cousins thorughout the coming years and that is what this blog will hopefully do. Any one in the Heeding family is welcome to join and keep in contact with everyone else. All you have to do is send me an email @ saratogaredneck@yahoo.com and ask for a invite and I will gladly send one out to you for you to join this blog. I look forward to hearing from all of you periodically. I hope everyone was able to travel safely to their homes after Bill's funeral and that you all had a safe trip.
