May 28, 2005

Saturday, May 28, 2005

Today is Leif and Jan's 39th wedding anniversary.

Jan awoke early this morning after spending the night in Leif's hospital room in Iowa City. She hugged him, told him good morning and wished him a happy anniversary. She then told him that he is very sick and the cancer has spread to his liver and he is not going to get well. She assured him we will be OK and God is waiting to take him home... and then she told him that she loves him... she kissed his forehead and layed back down...

Mere moments later, Leif passed from this life... quietly... serenely... and comfortably...


Visitation with the family is scheduled for Wednesday, June 1, 2005 at Wittich, Riley, Freers Funeral Home, Muscatine.

A memorial service will be held on Thursday, June 2, 2005 at Grace Lutheran Church, Muscatine.

Specific times will be posted as they are confirmed.

Leif's wishes were to be cremated, so no public viewing will be held.
