Grandpa


This week has been a very different week for my family, although filled will love and new memories, it was also a time of sadness as we said our earthly good-bye’s to a man who has been the cornerstone of our family.

Dear Rose,
We did not take you to the viewing or funeral because at the tender age of 3, I didn’t feel that you needed to come face to face with death or, while your great-grandpa was very ready to meet Jesus, the sadness it brings us that he will not be around for any more talks or family gatherings.

You were able to meet him and make some great memories with him and we will talk about him often and show you the pictures J I think what I would like you to know about your great-grandpa was that he was a patient and kind man. He didn’t keep track of what people owed him, but gave generously to all. He was also present for his family…grandparent’s day at school, graduations, birthdays, weddings, dinners; he made it!

Here are some pictures of you with great-grandpa: 








And here are some pictures of your mommy with great-grandpa:




Love,
Mommy
