You Will Be Missed

There will be more posts later. It has been a busy October already, but when you have to say good-bye to a dear sweet man, it makes everything else seem trivial. On Wednesday afternoon, we got the call that Grandpa Johnny passed away. We were sad that we missed seeing him one last time, but we are glad that he is no longer suffering. He will be missed by many. It has been a good but difficult weekend to be with family as we remember a great man.

We love you, Grandpa Johnny!!
