Peace

On Thursday we had Grandads funeral service and it was BEAUTIFUL!
He would have been proud of it! Tim Posey sang beautifully! My cousin, Lauren, read a beautiful letter to my Grandad and there wasn't a dry eye in the chapel by the time she was done.
My Uncle Roy (a.k.a. Bubba) told us great stories about my Grandad....he had us rolling in laughter....I know my Grandad was belting out his contagious laugh in Heaven as well!
Thank you to all of you who came to share in this celebration of his life. It was a celebration indeed. Grandad had so many wonderful friends and such a loving family.
He was truly blessed!
Prior to visitation Wednesday night, the kids wanted to leave a note for Grandad and put it in his casket with him...They were so sweet and I love that they did this.

If you knew my Grandad you know how proud he was of his kids, grandkids, and great grandkids and we were just as proud of him!
We know that he is with his beautiful daughters, Carol and Rebecca, that have been waiting a long time for their daddy and they are already watching the horse races!
Win one for me and save me a seat Grandad!
I know my family is at PEACE now with his death. He is no longer suffering with pain and is cancer free. We know he is with the Lord and celebrating!
WE LOVE AND MISS YOU!
Blessings,
MEL
