C Life

It was so nice seeing family while visiting Kansas City this past week!  While I was there I also spent time with friends from the past. FRIENDS: I had a great time meeting up with with my sister and Danni Boatwright.  Before Danni became well known as the winner (season 11) of the Reality TV show SURVIVOR we were childhood school buddies.  I'm so proud of who she is and the contributions she has made to the world.  It was fun meeting for lunch and catching up on each other's lives. A NOTE FROM BRIT: I reached into my luggage to retrieve something when I noticed a little white piece of paper.  I smiled big and felt loved while reading my little note.  I laughed out loud while reading the inside. As I handed the paper to Mr. B.T.C. I said, "How could I ever say NO to that?" When I talked to her on the phone I replied with a big "YES!"

Mr. B.T.C. and I recently flew to Kansas City. We were just there a few weeks ago but this time it was under different circumstances. We were there to support my father, who's sister(Debbie- age 56) died of a stroke suddenly and unexpectedly. I've never seen a photograph of my Dad with his siblings so I huddled them together to capture this special moment. Debra was born April 4, 1956 in Pottstown, PA to John Edward and Helen Brady. She grew up in KC, KS and later moved to Gardner where she attended Gardner High School.  She worked at Sprint for 18 years and most recently worked for the Kansas City School District. She was preceded in death by her parents.  Debra is survived by her daughter April(Chris) Richards of Spring Hill, KS; her seven siblings, Patricia Wheat of KC, KS, Gary(Deina)Brady of Sparta, MO, Denni(Connie) Brady of Springfield, MO, Donna(David) McCarthy of Pomona, KS, Eric Brady of PO, KS, Lonna (Rick) Mitchell of Branson, MO, Randy Brady of OP,KS ...

Mr. B.T.C and I booked a last minute flight to Springfield, Missouri to visit family.  I heard that my sister Chrisy was flying in from Vegas for the weekend so I decided if she was going, Well, so was I!  It was a great decision because it sure was good to see my family.  It's been awhile!
