Dear Beautiful Lydon family,
I am sharing tears, and sending my condolences, love, and prayers for peace to you all. Your Dad (& Pop Pop) was truly one of my favorite guys. I loved talking to him, and had to hang on to every word to make sure I understood his brogue, because I never wanted to miss something funny he’d say! I remember the first time I came to Ann’s house and couldn’t believe at 15 she knew how to set up his beer and shot for him! And I also adored that your Mom & Dad would have their cereal bowls and silverware set on the kitchen table the night before for the next morning. I also remember the first time I sat for corned beef and cabbage in the dining room with your parents, and your Dad and I were hysterical laughing in tears at the table for some reason, I really think because he knew I couldn’t understand him! I will also always remember your Mom & Dad’s smiling, twinkling Irish eyes, their presence was heartwarming. Reunited with your Mom, he is at peace, and he is happy. Slainte Mick, I will have a beer and a shot in honor of you today. You are all beyond blessed that he was yours. We are all beyond blessed to have known him. XOXO
