And one more time we played around with Bill











Yesterday we held a Celebration of Life for my Dad, Bill McAlevey, at the Westlake Golf Course.


The Celebration took place about 75 feet from where he got his only hole-in-one at the age of 85.


It was casual and relaxed and some precious moments of Bill's life were shared by family and friends.


It's pretty hard to summarize a full 92 years of life in a few hour celebration, but everyone seemed to enjoy themselves in an atmosphere that Dad would have appreciated.


No ties, good food and a few stiff drinks to say goodbye......oh yeah and two renditions of Bill Bailey by the entire gathering.


Thanks to everyone who attended and thanks for caring about him.


Hit it straight, don't cheat and keep proper score because it all matters later, and later comes sooner than you think.
