Sorry about your loss. Here's an idea that we did years ago. A family heirloom quilt was used as a table cloth for a holiday get-together. It was really special as if the person was still there. It was the highlight of the meal. Many special memories to you and yours as this heirloom is finished and preserved for years to come.
