Trent had been going to see his Grandpa a lot since the lung cancer diagnosis a couple of months ago. He had just been to see him on Sunday and he had actually gone by himself that time & I am glad he did so he was able to have some private time with his Grandpa before he passed.
The funeral plans and everything haven't been made yet.
We will miss Richard a lot. I am very greatful for the time that my kids had with him and the memories we were able to make with him over the past few months.
You all know that I am a huge picture person, so was Richard. He was always happy to sit with the kids for a picture. He knew how important it is to preserve those memories. So here are some of the pics we took in our more recent trips
I had blown this picture up to 8.5x11 for Richard -- he went on & on about how much he loved this picture of him & Logan :) I am glad that I was able to do that for him & that he enjoyed it so much!
and these pics aren't so recent but I just love the story behind them. This is Trent & his Grandpa at our wedding, in May of 2005, I am so glad our photographer thought to take this pic. This was before the ceremony so Trent hadn't seen me yet.......
but I had seen him (heehee) if you look closely right above Trents right shoulder at the white blinds you can see they are kind of messed up.......
because that's me looking out at him :) I remember saying "Oh look Jarid (our photog) is taking a pic of Trent & his Grandpa" I know the date is all screwed up on this pic, the camera hadn't had the date set on it I guess.
We will miss Richard so much & Trent & I appreciate all the love & support we have been getting from our families & friends during this.
