Heaven Has Another Angel

Heaven gained another angel, and he is sure going to be missed.  Grandpa Bob passed away on December 22nd after battling brain cancer for over two and a half years. 

Mama told me that Papa's head doesn't hurt any more, and now he gets to live with God, which is pretty cool.  I am sad that we don't get to go visit him, but Mama said some day we will get to see him again.  Mama was looking through pictures so we thought we would post some oldies

This one is of Ellen, so I guess it isn't too old, but considering she is only 6 months old, it is kind of old.

This was from my 2nd birthday.  Papa Bob was a great Papa and loved us all very much.

This was the last picture Mama got of Papa Bob, even as his health was failing he always had a smile for us all.  He loved getting to see us and it makes Mama happy to know that even at the end Papa still was able to enjoy us being there.

Papa was a great grandpa,

a loving husband,

a wonderful father,

and a caring and devoted bus driver.

We are so lucky to have Grandma Nancy to take such great care of Papa.  She always knew what he needed, and made sure to keep him happy and comfortable all the way to the end.  Grandma Nancy held our family together through the chaos and was able to keep Papa home all the way to the end.  She is such a blessing to our family and will never know how much we appreciate her and her love.

We will miss Papa every day,
Linden and Ellen
