Dinner with Grandpa Don, remembering Grandma B

Having fun with Grandma B in the summer of 2006

Visiting Grandpa don and Grandma B in the summer of 2007

Debbi and Monica brought Grandpa Don down from Salt Lake today to visit Grandma B's grave. She passed away February 7th 2008. This has been a really tough and lonely year.

Grandpa Don has made some life changing decisions during this past year. The thought of never seeing his sweetheart again was just too much to bare! He made his mind up to start going to church again and was soon able to go to the temple, receive his endowments and be sealed to Grandma!

He has really enjoyed his ward family and they love him! They call if he ever misses a meeting to make sure he is OK.

It is such a crime that he and Grandma missed out on so many years of having the gospel in their lives but it is such a blessing that he has it now!

He cries every time he talks about grandma yet, there is a light around him that I have never seen before. He has an inner happiness and peace that only comes from knowing he is a son of God and having the knowledge that he WILL see his sweetheart again someday.

We spent a nice evening with Deb, Monica and Grandpa talking about our memories of Grandma and learning more about Grandpa and his life.

Thanks for the great night....we love you!
