Seven years ago today, my grandpa, an astute, clever and remarkable man, lost his battle to renal cell cancer. He instilled in me the values of family, education, commitment, perseverance, achievement, respect, & discipline (among others). He fought his cancer until the day he died and remained remarkably composed and positive along the way. Whenever things get tough, I think of him. Gpa, I'm missing you every day. You'll always be a part of "our team"!! xo

Remembering Don - the oldest among my 9 Bryant cousins - what a SPECIAL cousin to me - I admired and loved him! He quietly exuded smart rationality with a big heart, a ready smile and was always there with his wonderful wife, Bev.

A role model for me from the time of my 1964 college graduation, when I ventured forth to the Bay Area, until his death in 2006, I remember his wisdom about life ("you never feel older, it's just that you have less energy")and Don...

Don,
Wow, a year already! You are a symbol of strength and positive attitude! You will always be an inspiration! I know you are dearly missed and I remember you on this anniversary.

Dear Don,

What a wonderful man. What a wonderful life. Most of the credit you would give to your wife. Three beautiful children with hearts made of gold. You would ask for no credit if the story was told. I miss you, Don.

Love, Randy

P.S. I would like to be like you if I ever get old.

Daddy, it's been a year since you passed. In some ways it feels like a long time ago and in other ways it feels like just yesterday. But I think of you each and every day. I see your face in my children, your love in Mom's eyes, and remember your tremendous strength when I'm struggling with decisions. God Bless you always. I miss you now and will love you forever. Your daughter, Sue
