Hey its your grandson Nick. I just got this obtituary notice from Brent today. This was so unexpected and its just shocked the heck out of me when my mom called me Saturday morning. This is the third grandparent death for me this year and I wanted to let you know just how much sorrow I feel right now, and I'm sure you're feeling the same way if not more so. So i guess we'll see you tomorrow at the ceremony. We still hope to see everyone this Christmas as well.
