    Ryan Andersen I am remembering a New Years Eve many years ago when a not even 4 year old Owen perfectly timed his “life is rich” toast while enjoying some sparkling apple juice and celebrating Kate’s 1st birthday early. You made all our lives richer, Owen! I’m blessed to have been loved by you and to love you in return. Miss you sweet O!

When Owen and I were little, back when we were living in our Cole street house, we were taking a bath after dinner.

    Kate Gerrity When we first got Scout at Christmas time (her name was actually Melly at the time), I remember Owen and I would sit on the ground facing each other with our legs in the shape of a V so that they formed a little enclosure for Scout. We had a small bouncy ball that we would roll back and forth to each other in the enclosure and Scout would chase after it for as long as we’d let her.

    Luca T. Will always remember Owen’s little song about Scout that would determine who was “it” during tag.
    Luca T. “There’s a soldier in the grass with a bullet up his a**. Be a good boy Scout, be a good boy Scout, pull it out, pull it out, pull it out” I...

    It was a warm Halloween, not sure which year maybe 2016, and I was chatting with Kaki in front of her house. Owen came out saying he was going to meet some friends. He stood before his mom for a minute and listened to her. I can't remember exactly what she said but it was the usual things we say like "be safe" and "what time..." except she said it...
