I had to drive 2 hrs min one way . For those that know Mn in the winter understand how crazy it can be driving in the snow. So I would stay at Deb and Steve’s (Ballard) on my way to the airport or home. The funny, and oh so sweet, part of this story was that I had traveled for Cisco and other companies for 20 years while living in MN so I was a very experienced traveler but Dad didn’t think twice about that. If I had an early flight, Dad “Steve “ (Ballard) would knock on my door at 3am and say “Shelly, Shelly do you have an alarm set?” He was always so sweet and thoughtful. And concerned for me. I would smile, even at 3a, and say yes I do!! He would go out and start my car or even drive me to make sure I was taken care of.

We exchanged messages on Wednesday night before his surgery. We told each other we loved one another! So glad he knew how much he was loved!

I’m going to miss you laughing at me when I would fall off stuff and forget to use something to save myself. I’m going to miss you making me laugh so hard I would cry. Most of all I will miss you “secretly” telling me how much you love and need Tokket (Deb). I loved you telling me about you sons and grandchildren and how proud you are of them. Heaven has gained an angel but our world is lonelier without you.
