Having fun with Grandma B in the summer of 2006
Visiting Grandpa don and Grandma B in the summer of 2007
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!

Beautiful love story! What a gift to his sweetheart.
I can't believe the pictures in the background, Grandma "pink" gave us those exact pictures, we had them up for years. Its so neat you got to enjoy your granpa and learn more about your grandma B your kids are so great with family and show so much love.
Wow, that is such a sweet story. I am touched by the ward members remembering to check on him if he is gone. I hope I am so in tune!!
