Stopping for funerals a true show of respect
This week I drove to McMinnville to attend the funeral of my precious childhood friend of 40 years, Fairy Donalson. To say my heart was broken would be an understatement.
As we pulled onto the bypass, I was overwhelmed by the respect I saw from the people of McMinnville. This is the first time in my life I had ever seen cars stop in the middle of the lanes to let a funeral pass.
I just wanted to let you know I appreciate your respect for Fairy’s last ride down the bypass. She was the best friend I have ever had. I can’t imagine life without her. She and her family have a very special place in my heart forever.
