[2nd husband, Ray Romine had died the day before of cancer]
Mary & Rocky stayed out home with me last night. Met Paris & Dad Romine* at Axe’s at 10:30 to make arrangements. Chose an oak casket $640 & $90 for vault & $50 for grave opening. I made a small sweetheart rose garland for in the casket. At funeral home from 7:00 to 10:30. Lots of people. Chose poems for service from those Ray knew by heart.
[*Ray Romine’s father Fred and brother Paris]
