Well, 2024 sucked.   Just to get that out of the way. Yes, there were some great moments, but a large dark cloud loomed over much of it.   In early February, Brian's mother Nancy was diagnosed with glioblastoma - the most aggressive and most common type of brain cancer. And it sucks. Given it's generally aggressive nature and poor prognosis for anything slowing it down, Nancy opted for quality of life. So, February and March was lots of back and forth between Seattle and Ft. Collins for Brian and Elizabeth. Ben and Conner made trips when they could between work and school. In April, Brian and Elizabeth "mini-moved" to Ft. Collins to be closer to the family and help out as we could. Still very grateful to have been able to do that with remote work options. Nancy passed on July 6, 2025 at home surrounded by her family and lots and lots of love. In between then and February there were plenty of highlights including lots of time with family, laughs, and a few good cries ...
