A Loss


Today, we are hurting over the loss of someone that was really special. He considered my siblings and I his grandkids, even though we were technically step-grandchildren. I am so thankful he was healthy enough to make the trip to Indiana from Florida this past Christmas.

I'm so glad he finally got to meet his great-grandchildren while he was home at Christmas. We are so heartbroken and saddened that cancer has taken yet another great person. Grand Dad down south, we will miss you always.


Artie and I with Grand Dad at our wedding. I wanted to share a picture of him how I will remember him looking before he was sick.

So sorry to hear about your loss Steph- but at least you did get to see him and he got to meet the kids before he went and I'm sure he is in a better place now.
