Mute blog music! This is when the Arizona Republic did an article on the life of Grandpa, My cousins wife Gina put this Tribute together for him.
This is how Grandpa or PEE PAW spent much of his time his last months. Hospice has been a huge blessing and allowed Grandpa to stay at home instead of in a hospital..Who ever invented that was a genius! Grandpa was given six months to live about ten months ago. Cancer had overtaken all of his body including his eye sight. The last ten months were difficult for him. He was a very independent man with the exception of needing my Grandma.
She is as tough as nails...she raised eight boys and one girl....Grandma is the lone survivor of her generation losing a sister, brother and law and the loss of many friends that have completed their time on earth. She is so strong, I admire her. We would try to visit her often during these last months, I don't think I have ever really heard her murmur a word about this whole thing, she just ran with it.
This picture is such a delight in our house. Take pictures with your loved ones!!! One day they will be your most valued possession, along with the knowledge that families are eternal! What a comfort that is! So Grandpa until we meet again, we love you!
