Omer

I just learned earlier today that a man that I knew named Omer Powell died yesterday. He is not family, and I only met him once, but I felt like he deserved a special blog! You see, he just turned 100 years old this past Christmas Eve! My friend's father (who was related to him in some way) lived across the (gravel) road from him and took care of him. I am sure he will be missed greatly by those who knew and loved him. I considered interviewing him for a history project, but never got around to it. What a missed opportunity :( You will be missed Omer! See you one day in Heaven!
