Purpose of this blog
This blog provides a view into the very special life and valiant passing of Larry C. Jamison in 2018. (Items are in no particular order, but just as I think of things and am able to write about them).
When we moved into our house in November 2016, this was Larry's recliner in our living room.
As his health declined, he experienced difficulty in getting out of his recliner. We were given the gift of this power recliner by our dear friends, the Johnsons. In the photo below you can see Larry seated in his new favorite chair.
The recliner that had been Larry's became mine as he adjusted to his new "electric chair", as I called it.
One of the instructions Larry gave me 4 days before his passing was to give this power recliner to someone who could use it in our church congregation.
Earlier this week that wish was fulfilled as the recliner was given to a Smith family, friends of ours from Church. Mrs. Smith sat in front of us nearly every Sunday for 22 years. Now she can sit in Larry's chair. I know he's happy about this!
In its place is "my" recliner that I sat in for the 20 years we lived in our previous house. Actually, the chairs have switched places from the way they were arranged in the second photo above when we first moved into this house.
When my son helped move the rocker/recliner into its new location, he saw me take a picture of it and he asked "Is this going to be another blog post, Mom?" Yes, it surely is, Matt!
To publicly acknowledge Larry's passing on November 13, 2018, I placed this "bough basket" on his grave Wed, Nov 13, 2019.
It featured a small stuffed bird that my friend placed in the bird feeder that was gifted to his gravesite by his daughter Ruthie Brady. The bird feeder is especially meaningful because it's made from a 1950 license plate from Pennsylvania, which was Larry's home state of birth. And it's significant because it was Larry's daily habit to feed the birds in our back yard. He loved to care for them.
The beautiful Christmas solar candles were placed at her father's grave by Ruthie Brady, accompanied by her husband, Brandon Brady, who was very devoted to his father-in-law Larry Jamison.
Thank you, Ruthie and Brandon, for your continuous attention to the final resting place of your devoted father and my loving husband!
