My father-in-law passed away in 2006. Every time we return to Pittsburgh we make a point to visit his grave. He is buried at the National Cemetery of the Alleghenies, a cemetery for veterans. It was bitterly cold on this day, it's a large, high, open space, and the wind was really biting. Our daughter, Elizabeth, had planned to build a snowman for Grandpa, and have a snowball fight. However, a few minutes was all she could take! She helped Daddy make a very small snowman, then we had to leave before we all froze. Although it was so cold, it was very serene up there, with all the fresh, unmarked white snow covering everything.
