Godspeed Uncle John 12/24/11

John Descoteaux,one of my last uncles on my father's side, went home to God today. There are no words to express my feelings. I remember Uncle John, in the hallway of my mom and dad's house in Brooklyn, showing us how to bowl. He had us tuck a folded bath towel under our arm so that our elbow would stay close to our bodies. I remember him at our house here in Sterling, at our family reunion, cooking on the grill. Funny what you remember. The entire family's thoughts and prayers are with Aunt Martha, Johnny, Lynn, Ray, Danielle, Jake and Hope. May God bless us all in this time of sadness. May Uncle John enjoy Heaven and seeing all those who have been waiting his arrival.
