Goodbye

Yesterday was the funeral for Jake's Dad. It was pretty sad, as funerals are. He was cremated, so there was no body to view, but instead his urn and pictures of him were displayed on a table in the front of the church. Their neighbor (with help from the family) had put together a slide show with music and did a wonderful job. It showed his life from childhood to days before he passed away. I don't know how many times I watched it, but every time still hurt just as much. It is so hard to believe that he is gone. He will be greatly missed, and always appreciated. I am glad that I got to tell him "Thank You" for everything that he has done. He raised a wonderful son (well, three of them, but I am only in love with one) , he was a wonderful Grandpa, and an outstanding person overall. I am fortunate and thankful to have been a part of his life.
