Rest in Peace Dear Friend

It has been a rough week 4 funerals in our area and one in particular was so hard. But wanted to share a poem with you in the  In Loving Memory Print

Walking With Grandpa

I like to walk with Grandpa
His steps are short like mine.
He doesn't say "Now hurry up"
He always takes his time.
I like to walk with Grandpa
His eyes see things like mine do
Wee pebbles bright, a funny cloud
Half-hidden drops of dew
Most people have to hurry
They do not stop and see
I'm glad that God made Grandpa
Unrushed and young like me.

He had 8 grandchildren all of which he loved so much, he shared his life and loves with them and made their time so special.
At the service the music was picked by him, and oh the tender meaning he left to all of us. He shared his thoughts, his firm beliefs, and left his love implanted in our hearts.
Didn't know it, but his bible was with him most of the time.  He wrote in it, he underlined his favorite passages, and left a legacy of how important God is in our lives.  His bible notes were shared with us and the minister commented  It was a bible of a true farmer it was held together with Duct Tape..  it gave us a chuckle because this man was a friend to all, a farmer to the end and a Man of Character never to be forgotten.

We all need to assess our lives once in a while and take time to enjoy all the little things and tell someone you love them everyday.  Tomorrow may not come.

I think the best medicine I can have today is a visit from my 3 grandchildren to remind me life goes on and lots of things to do today and lots of love to share.

God Loves You
