A Note On the 1-Year Anniversary of Austin's Passing ..

Today we think about you, Dad. And celebrate your memory in true Shute fashion...with silly arguments, good food and and lots of grief of course.

It was hard...Can't believe it's been a year since we lost you but you'd be pretty proud of all the things we've done this year. Mike is retiring next week, Mom is going to Ireland...Casey is getting married, Matt is a full blown, bad-ass Marine in Japan. Mom hasn't lost all your hard earned money, even though the economy is doing it's best to wrestle it away from her...We elected the first African-American President and I missed, more than any other day, getting to talk to you on that day...I'd love to hear what you think about Gloria and Funk...

Here's to you Dad!

Miss and love you, Carrie Beth
