Wisdom. Strength. Love. Storyteller.


These are just a few words that describe my Gramps. All and all he's an amazing man. I feel honored that I have been able to share my life with him- hearing stories- telling jokes-- learning how to stay married- and so much more.

This morning my Gramps hit an all time low- he collapsed and it's looking like his major organs are shutting down and in a matter of a short time he might no longer be with us. Please pray for my family as they go through this tough time of not knowing. As I have said before I am blessed to not have lost many people in my life-- and none of my family members have ever passed away.

Gramps has lived well-- laughed often-- shown love and grace-- and for that I call myself blessed to know and love such a man. Hang in there Gramps-- We are praying for you! Mimi- we love you- stay strong! Mom, J & J you are a gift to your family- your support for them has been priceless over the last few months. We love you all and are praying for you!

My heart also goes out to you, Christy. Like I said, my grandfather seems to be leaving us at the same time, however I am not that close to him. I'm sure it is very hard to experience this hardship.
