My Blog

Thanks for stopping by! I use to blog to "keep in touch," I use to blog to brag, I use to blog for an outlet. I have now realized I blog because these are the things I want my children to know/remember about our life together as a family. These days won't stop passing, but having a record of it when it is all a memory will be priceless to me.
I read your blog because I love you!

They just don't make men like this anymore

This morning my Grandpa passed away. He was 92 years old. He was an amazing man who lived his life full of service. He served his country, his community and his church well. He was full of wisdom and knowledge.He was disciplined and kind. His legacy will live on and I feel very lucky to be part of it. I feel a lot of peace that he is happy for this new adventure and is very happy to not be held back by his aged body any longer. I love him very much and will miss him.

Thanks Tiff. That is beautifully done and I really like the pictures you chose to use. They really don't make men like Dad any more.

I second this wholeheartedly! It will be a very happy reunion when we get to see him again--a challenge to us all to live our lives so we can. What an amazing example of how to live life as Christ would have us live it. I love and miss you grandpa!

Love this! Beautifully put! I was just contemplating putting a post about Grandpa on my blog and thought to myself, I don't have a really good picture... I may have to steal one. Where did you get them?
