Aunt Eulalia, Dusty, Gary, Terry, Paige and Charlie, I am sorry to read of GP's death. GP was an awesome person and I have many fond memories of him during my growing up years. I had the opportunity to reconnect with him 3 years ago at my mother's funeral and I am so glad that we had those moments to talk. My prayers are with you all during this time. I believe that we never lose the people we love. They live the rest of our lives with us in our heart. May the peace which comes from God and the memories of love shared, comfort you now and in the days ahead.
