I'll be honest, I didn't know you had experienced so much loss, Ellen. I knew about your father, but must have forgotten reading about your mother and brother. Your strength and ability to keep going through the face of adversity are admirable. I loved picturing your father painting with a smile on his face in the middle of summer. I bet he's beaming at the sight of the framed painting in your home now. Beautiful story. Definitely got me in my feels, thinking about the special items I have from those I have lost.
