Remembering Uncle Steve

Uncle Steve passed away three years ago. About a year ago I found a lamp that was his but was in storage. It was slightly damaged so I took the lamp mechanism out of it and turned it back into a vase.

The memories are a little hard to deal with sometimes. I miss him so much and I just didn't realize how much I would miss him until he was gone.

Anyways, I started putting little Post-It notes in the vase with a date on it. Whenever I think of Uncle Steve, I jot the date on the Stick-It and toss it into the vase. If something specific triggers the memory, I will write that down on the Post-It as well. It sounds silly, but it helps.
