pieces

Two weeks ago today Adele found peace and we all fell to pieces.  The last fourteen days have been some of the most difficult and yet beautiful days of our lives.

Adele's calling hours took place on Monday, April 18, 2011 from 4:00 - 7:00 pm.  Friends and family began to arrive by 3:30 and continued to visit until well after 7:00.  We were all overwhelmed by the amount of visitors that stood in line to say their final farewells.  People came in from all over NY as well as other states.  Some drove hours, others had to fly but everyone came together because Adele had touched their hearts in one way or another.

The flowers at the calling hours took my breath away.  They were all stunning and I know Adele loved them.
