| As the sunsets on Lake Erie |
As I reflect on the loss of my cousin, I am drawn to remember the little things that make life the joy that it is. Recently I celebrated my 9th wedding anniversary, but a few days before that I had the pleasure of just enjoying the majesty that is a sunset with my husband.
I am most appreciative of the little things! These are a few of the sights from that evening.

| Albert “Suge” Maples III 1952-2011 |
Today my family and I said our farewells to my cousin Albert Maples III, who passed away suddenly and according to all of our minds too soon. As is always the case with funerals you are left reflective and today is no different.
Suge as he was known to his family and friends had such a huge spirit and a love for life it is hard to imagine that he is now gone from our daily lives, but we all know that his beautiful smile and spirit lives on.
Rest in peace my beautiful cousin…say hello to Mommy and I’ll see you on the other side!
