I know this is a bit late of a blog but I still needed to do it.
On February 8, 2009 my grandpa passed away. He had been fighting many years of liver failure. He was a wonderful man and will be missed. He was always making me smile or giving me wonderful advice. Some I took and some I didn’t take, and then later realized I should have. We all went out for his funeral which was held on February 14th 2009. Here are some pictures of him and of the family gathering for the funeral.(Be aware this is a long post)

It was sure great to see you guys. I'm sure missing you more now though. I like the way you did your pictures. Every time I try to mess with different sizes, it takes me forever to get it right. And it still never does what I want it to. Very cute.
NIce post---but alot of those pictures are from my camera! :-) But, at this rate who knows if I'll ever get more up! :-) I love the pictures of your grandpa at the reunion--those are the best.
