My Grandpa

Well this has been a rough week! We lost my Grandpa Monday January 28th... On my Dad's birthday. My Grandpa was a very big gentle man with a smile on his face most of the time. I spent 70% of my childhood around my Grandpa. We were always at his farm as kids, or he was sitting at our kitchen table with a big glass of tea at his side.

My Grandpa had not been doing very well the last few years and so we knew his time was getting shorter, but no one ever wants to let that soak in too deep. He passed away in his home with my Dad and Grandma at his side with no pain. That is the best way I could have thought for Grandpa to go.

So as we plan for the furneral, I did what I love best, prepaired photo's for his funeral. As I am going through old pictures and fixing tears, touching up and resizing I get an idea... I thought of taking my Grandpa's farm as a background and adding a beautiful sky with his Silhouette in the sky. It turned out more beautiful than I imagined.

I am so Thankful for my memories of my Grandpa!!! He will always be remembered in so many ways!
