A life well lived


This weekend we went to Grand Rapids for Doug's Grandfather's funeral. He was 94 and had lived on his own up until the end of February at the time in Florida. It was a celebration of his life and all the Grandchildren participated in the service. Making up picture boards, writting and speaking at the funeral, playing piano and organ ..... Everyone who spoke Grandchildren, Doug's dad and the Pastor of his Grandfather's church were all consistent in what they had to say without consulting one another. He was frugile, loving, devoted to his wife, faithful to God, loved to joke and tease, and was a hold out to wearing a three piece suit in church. The picture was taken this Christmas 2006. We enjoyed time together as family and reflected on many happy memories.
