Bob...

Bryan's dad Bob passed away over the weekend...

Bob was a hugely brave, smart, fiercely loyal... oh and he 100%, unequivocally believed Bryan and the girlies hung the moon. He was for sure the guy you wanted in your corner, and he will be missed...greatly.

He was also my blog's #1 fan, which was incredibly sweet given the fact that "loving" lists and outfits and random musings were decidedly not his thing.

So Bob, this one's for you.

    Sorry to hear this. It's funny (and amazing) to see which people rally around different ventures like blogs. It's great that he was in your corner.

    I'm so sorry. A friend's husband just died last week, barely 43 and such a lover of life. I know the holidays will be so difficult but all I can think to do is to hold each other while remembering all the was truly wonderful about your father-in-law. xoxo

    hi Joslyn, I'm just now catching up on blogs after a holiday break. so sorry to hear about your father-in-law, but grateful that you have people around you to help fill the emptiness with love and happiness. my husband lost his mother 8 years ago and we still miss her terribly. it's so very hard. sending my love.
