We're at Bruny, which is a place surrounded my memories of Rudie.
He is the one who wanted 2 long tables to be able to seat heaps of people. Great idea.
He's the one who put most of the photos on the wall throughout the years. Priceless.
He's the one who put the thick clear plastic covering on those tables which we are constantly telling the kids to keep flat and not put their hands under. Thanks Rudie.
He's the one who decided to put the extension on the deck, perhaps without technically being permitted by council to do so. Shhh...
He's the one who used to be up early on a Saturday morning mowing and chainsawing... Can't say I miss that noise!
Can't help but miss him here...

Me too. Special.

What to say that someone hasn't said already? I know that I didn't "know" him all that well, but I loved him and I miss him too... Awesome post sister!
I forgot how handsome he is!
The people we love never seem to leave us. We always find them in unexpected places at unexpected times.

Well, ditto for me! Brought tears to my eyes as well.....DAD
"He's the one who decided to put the extension on the deck, perhaps without technically being permitted by council to do so. Shhh..." because the rules don't apply to the Sypkes family, right?!!? I remember andrew telling us fondly in SF that his dad always told him that growing up! I didnt know his dad at all, but I often think about that motto. I'm such a rule-follower that it helps me lighten up a little when I remember it! Seems like a fun way to live life!
