My Grandparents

A lot has happened since I wrote back in November. I have been so busy I haven't had time to do any blogging. I'll try to be better at it this year.

We had a nice birthday lunch celebrating my Gramma's 95th birthday at Warren's (her favorite place) the first Saturday in December. Here is a picture of my grandparents on that day. They looked great!

This is the last picture I have of them together. :( My Grampa started to get sick and he ended up passing away on February 4th. We had a lovely funeral and it was a very nice remembrance of him and the life he lived for almost 97 years.

My Gramma was diagnosed with an aggressive brain tumor at the end of January. She didn't want my Grampa to know as he was really deteriorating during that time. After he died, she went down hill so very fast. She went home to be with the Lord on March 15th. They died 5-1/2 weeks apart from each other. They wouldn't have had it any other way. They were together for more than 70 years and she probably died of a broken heart. I love them dearly and I will always cherish the times we had together. I am so blessed that my girls knew them and loved them dearly too.
