I went to the funeral today for Dell Hausbeck. She was the wife of a Navy Sailor, who helped mentor me so I could adjust myself into the navy as smoothly as possible. They supported me, both of them. Tonight, I supported them and I told Dell good bye for the last time.
She liked peanut butter in her pancakes. At first I thought it was weird, but I’ll give it a try.
At the funeral, Paul talked about how his wife saved his life. He had been a full blown alcoholic. For many years until Dell intervened. She made it her mission to save Paul from himself.
When he heard she was in the hospital, his biggest fear was that she would die alone.
