This weekend was Grandpa's funeral. He was Dave's grandpa, on his mother's side. This beloved man will be greatly missed by the whole family. Dave and I had a special relationship with him because we lived just blocks from his home for two years while living in Federal Way. We had the opportunity to spend one weekend a month with him- he would come stay at our house for a couple days in our extra bedroom. Although his eyesight, hearing, and health was deteriorating, we had some fun times. One of his favorite activities (and ours too) was to go out for lunch for a good hamburger! Dave takes after the man in his love of meat! He always had a great sense of humor too, and was kind enough to laugh at every one of Dave's jokes- that's saying something, let me tell ya! :) We are all sad to see him go but we are happy to know that we are tied together as a family for all of time and eternity. And he is now reunited with his beloved wife whom he loved very much.
