On a quite hilltop in of Alfalfa County Oklahoma, in the Timberlake Cemetery, today, May 26th, 2009, we gathered, family and friends, to celebrate the life of Jade Glen Shaklee, Nephew to Ann and Stan Moffat.
Jade died from brain cancer, and I agree with one and all, cancer sucks!
It was as uplifting as it was sorrowful. Many shared their love of and memories of Jade and as the services concluded, the morning doves began to sing, as if someone there cued them to start. The wind laid, it clouded over as if Jade was watching over us and making sure we were all comfortable...
At the young age of 33, he had become an awesome man, full of many accomplishments, achieved heights many of us only dream of, and he will be deeply missed by one and all. The huge crowd on hand was testimony to his touching many lives. He was laid to rest beside his brother Gray, and his grandparents, Harold and Mary Cathrene Shaklee.
Our hearts and prayers are with his parents, David and Terry, and his sister, Ky, and especially his wife, Julia.
We love you. We extend our deepest sympathy to you all.
