My grandpa passed away today. In recent weeks the family has had a chance to gather to say their good-byes to him. Even though I was not able to go it was so meaningful to me to receive a family heirloom from my Dad at Christmas that Grandpa had passed on to him just days before. It was also a comfort to know that my Dad had made it back in time to visit him one more time and stay until his passing. Dad was even able to show Grandpa pictures of all of the kids having fun at Christmas! I wish I was able to gather with the rest of the family for the funeral, but it just is not possible right now.
