Grandpa Guy

My Grandpa Guy is the best Grandpa anyone could ever have. I am so grateful for having him in my life. He taught me games like "Here Stands a Post" and "Don't Smile." He was a master with wood work and loved to tease us grandkids. He loves Grandma and you know it whenever you see them together. I have so many wonderful memories with Grandpa I can't name them all but I do cherish them. My Grandpa Guy passed away on June 23, 2011. He was surrounded by his family. It was hard to see him suffer. When I received the call that Grandpa had passed, I felt peaceful and calm. I am so grateful for the knowledge I have of the gospel of Jesus Christ. I know I will see my Grandpa again. I know he will be with my Grandma forever. I love my Grandpa. He is a wonderful man. I am blessed to have him in my life.
Grandpa's funeral was on June 30, 2011. It was wonderful. The tribute given and testimony of our Savior were perfect. I was honored to sing a song with the granddaughters. We sang "Each Life that Touches Ours for Good," from the LDS Hymn book. I love that song. The great-grandkids sang "I am a Child of God" and "Families Can Be Together Forever." It was beautiful.
