Kona's Dad 

Kona's dad passed away last night.

We at the Talemaker crew are so sad to hear it but it sounds like he fought the tough fight. 

Our thoughts go out to Kathy and to Kona. The living need the support and those that depart are at peace. 

We are honestly here no matter what the need. 

As he requested cremation there will not be a service. I know many of you asked.

Kona was able to hang out with his brother Ty today. He's had a great amount of fun. He jumps from the couch to the chair with ease. He so loves the tv time and yes he's been out in this mucky rain.

Momma Kathy will be coming for her boy on Wednesday after doing all the things that this life stage brings.
